As a therapist, I strongly believe in creating a comfortable and safe space for clients. Through my experience, I've found that my therapy style is more casual, where I find sessions being experienced as casual conversations. I also show clients that I am human too and let clients of mine know that I've had my share of life experiences and have experienced some of the feelings you've experienced based on your current stressors. I can truly empathize with you and your stress. I've heard from many...

I utilize a combination of theoretical approaches including motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, and relational therapy. Together we can tap...
I enjoy working with individuals who are motivated to see a change in their life.
