My approach
She has a person-centered approach to treatment with a trauma-focused lens.
My focus
She has experience treating a variety of mental health disorders, most commonly PTSD and other trauma disorders, substance abuse, depression, anxiety, and bipolar disorders.
My communication style
She has a laid-back, informal style that incorporates humor into her sessions to create a relaxed environment. Therapy can be challenging, but humor can be an aid in healing.
My journey to mental healthcare
In her younger years, she was a high school English teacher. Through her experience teaching, she learned her favorite part of the job was helping her students and co-workers with issues with which they were dealing outside of the educational setting. This is what inspired her to become a therapist, as well as her own mental health journey.
My goals for you
She approaches goal setting collaboratively with clients.
