MY APPROACH

My therapeutic approach includes a variety of different techniques which are selected based on the client’s presenting concern. I am Registered Play Therapist where I have received specific and specialized training to use play therapy, and assist children who benefit from that modality of support. Some other therapeutic approaches I am most influenced by include Solution Focused, Narrative, Cognitive Behavioral, Adlerian, and General Systems Theory.

Mental health matters, and not everything you are holding on to is yours to carry. Taking that first step towards bettering your health is one of the most powerful choices a person will make. I am here to support you by examining all environments and relationships that form who you are, and focus on your desired change in overall wellness and health. I believe clients can experience change and growth while processing life’s challenges, uncovering patterns, and building opportunities for connection. I use a variety of approaches and will collaborate with you to provide an individualized and unique therapeutic experience. I strive to provide an environment that is comfortable, welcoming, and free of judgement. My goal for my clients is to feel valued and understood as we collaboratively grow through their identified therapeutic goals, and life barriers.
