In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy, then discuss what goals you have for your sessions. With CBT, and other techniques, we collaboratively explore unhelpful thinking patterns, their impact on distressing feelings and increase coping to master these vital skills.

Compassionate, "makes space to be myself", "treats me with respect", "allows me to be me...I like that." Wise, smart, knowledgeable, "you taught me something there. I definitely can use that." "You're funny with all that energy". "I like how you famed it that way. It makes it easier for me to understand."

I wanted to help people who others gave up on. I feel people's pain and have a desire to hold the line in support of their wellness journey. I also realized that I can create a non-judgmental environment that allows people to authentically be themselves and approach change in a way that supports and affirms our value as human beings.

I have a four-legged baby named Sawyer. He is a rescue and will be turning 6 years old on 12/10. I revel in spending quality time with my family. I also appreciate a great action movie, eating movie theater popcorn (specifically...lol) and shopping. Summer vacations at the beach are also a favorite pastime.
