My Approach to Helping

"A caring listener with 10+ years of experience providing individuals with compassionate mental health support. I have served in hospitals, community outpatient clinics, and crisis agencies. For many years I had the privilege of working with our nation’s veterans and their families. I enjoy the challenge of helping people sort through stressors and develop strategies to improve their overall health. I strive to empower each client toward self-awareness and emotional growth and stability. I will partner with you to identify strengths, recognize areas for growth and broaden positive coping skills. I wholeheartedly believe it is possible for individuals to improve their lives and recover from traumatic experiences. Holistic approach. I am skilled in evidence-based practices including CBT, Mindfulness, and ACT. My focus is to help motivated clients improve their emotional understanding and coping skills. I enjoy educating others on how to challenge thoughts, clarify values, and emotionally regulate themselves by recognizing triggers, thought distortion, and the inner critic.

I am patient, casual, and nonjudgemental. Most people describe me as ""easy to talk to "". I listen with curiosity and help clients explore underlying themes and needs. I have always been naturally curious, positive, and people-oriented. Originally interested in nursing, I became increasingly fascinated with my psychology courses and the science involved in emotions and personality. Maintaining healthy relationships and connections doesn’t happen by default.

To gain insights and understanding into the patterns that are no longer serving you well, To help clarify feelings and needs, define measurable goals, and develop strategies. Our first session should feel like a caring conversation. I place focus on understanding the conflict or crisis that brings you to therapy. I have a collaborative flexible communication style. Feel free to ask questions and express needs goals at any time during our sessions.
