For me, the foundation of counseling lies in creating a safe space for my clients. A space where you have the freedom to engage in deep self-exploration, to speak your truth without judgment, and to feel truly heard, respected, and seen. For many of my clients, this is an experience they have never had before.

While our work includes a great deal of learning, skill-building, challenging old beliefs, emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and healing, I believe the therapeutic relationship is the true linchpin. Together, we build the trust needed to take that first step, and the step after that. It is within this environment that you explore new ways of thinking and being, that you then practice in your life, allowing you to see the world slightly differently, feel genuinely connected, and allow yourself the quiet hope that things can change.

THIS SECTION ISN’T DONE YET BUT GOES ON THE COUNSELING PAGE

Our sessions may facilitate your understanding and movement through past events that continue to surface, as we explore new responses that begin to create new results. We work on improving relationships, dealing with conflict, identifying and advocating for your own needs. Most clients want to feel more in control of their emotions/moods, more effectively manage stress, worry, and anxiety, and feel more satisfied with their lives.

My work is grounded in mindfulness which can help you become more self-aware of habitual thoughts and feelings. I utilize Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) in our work, a set of skills and strategies that strengthen emotion regulation, our ability to move through difficult interactions and situations more effectively and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which is based on the idea that how we think (cognition), how we feel and how we act (behavior) all interact together. It’s powerful to understand how our thoughts affect our emotions and behaviors and to begin to challenge the accuracy of some thoughts.
