Introduction

I work from a person-centered approach and empower clients to take charge of their own therapy and their own lives. As someone who likes knowing the "why" behind behaviors, I find it helpful to investigate which underlying causes may be contributing to a client's current stress in order to begin creating goals for positive changes. I enjoy working with individuals who want to overcome adverse experiences, are looking to establish a secure sense of self, and would like to manage stress caused by challenging thoughts/feelings. I believe that addressing these needs will allow clients to get the most out of life. As humans, we are created to live in community with one another. I highly value taking the time to build a strong therapeutic relationship and look forward to walking along side clients in their path to healing.
