Nice to meet you

I guide individuals and teach coping skills specifically tailored to meet their mental and emotional needs while increasing the ability to better cope with life challenges. I believe in practicing a “here and now” approach (Gestalt) accompanied by a compassionate and Strength-Based style that encourages the practice of mindfulness. I commonly integrate multiple therapeutic approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational interviewing (MI) Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT).
