My clinical approach utilizes aspects of solution focused, client centered, strengths  based therapies while also incorporating cognitive behavioral strategies to support changes in behaviors and thought processes.  I come from a trauma informed perspective realizing that past trauma affects our experience and perspective, but does not need to define us.  I believe that we as humans have many strengths and I will help you identify those to help promote changes in your life.  I offer a safe and non judgmental space to come discuss your current challenges and celebrate your strengths.

You can expect a warm , open minded approach as we begin our first session. My goal for our first visit is to understand your goals and what you hope to achieve in therapy.  I will review your history and begin to discuss your strengths.   As we continue in further session we will begin to work on skills to meet your goals.  My goal is to give you skills you can continue to use even once your therapy is complete.
