My Approach to Helping
Are you feeling weighed down by life's challenges, unsure of how to move forward, or struggling to find balance in the chaos? Whether you're dealing with anxiety, stress, depression, a mood disorder, or difficult transitions, it's completely understandable to feel stuck at times. And it's okay to need help to find your way back to a place of peace, confidence, and direction. That’s where I come in.
I approach therapy with a focus on your strengths and the belief that change is possible for everyone. My goal is to help you recognize the skills, resilience, and resources you already possess and empower you to use them in a way that creates lasting positive change. We’ll work together to navigate your unique circumstances, and I'll be here to support you in learning new skills and discovering the path forward that feels right for you.
Therapy is a highly personal experience, and I believe in tailoring our work together to fit your specific needs and preferences. I draw from a variety of approaches, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-focused therapy, nature-informed therapy, and motivational interviewing, to address the challenges you're facing. Sometimes, we'll focus on immediate solutions for a pressing issue, and other times, we'll take a deeper look at patterns that may be influencing your life. My approach is flexible, so we can adjust our work as needed to suit your evolving needs.
I understand that taking the step to start therapy can feel intimidating. I’ve been there myself—entering therapy as a teenager was difficult, but it was one of the most important decisions I’ve ever made for my personal growth. I recognize the vulnerability it takes to seek help, and I promise that I will create a safe, welcoming space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and goals without judgment. If I wasn't welcoming enough, we also have an in-office golden retriever that is always welcoming! While therapy may be uncomfortable at times, rest assured that I’ll be by your side through every step, helping you build the tools and confidence you need to move forward.
I am passionate about creating a positive, collaborative experience with my clients, and my ultimate goal is to help you create meaningful, lasting change. If you’re ready to take that first step toward a healthier, more fulfilled life, I’m here to help you get there.
