I am passionate about people leading empowered, connected, and purposeful lives. I provide counseling services to diverse clients as they learn, change, grow, and function in increasingly inspired, creative, healthy, and adaptive ways. I work collaboratively with clients in identifying needs, making changes, and practicing new skills in a safe and supportive setting. I am experienced in working with adults, couples, families, as well as adolescent clients, on issues including depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, anger, identity, and unwanted thoughts or emotions.
Primarily, I use Systems Theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Strength Based Approaches; while including an array of other therapeutic modalities to help the individual, couple, and family accomplish their goals. Together we discover underline influences for concerns and collaboratively work towards achieving our mission.
My background before psychotherapy is in study of behavioral science, philosophy, and athletics, which continues to inform my work as a therapist. I also have experience working with the criminality population and their families, at-risk student and professional athletes, as well as high profile individuals.
