My belief, self-care is paramount. It is my goal to assist in all areas of life, in order for you to feel balanced and motivated. I work with individuals 16yrs old through adulthood. Whether struggling at home, school, or work I see my role as assisting you and your important others to identify goals, reflect on barriers, and build resources through your own strengths as well as the supports around you. I have earned a certification in Perinatal Mental Health and Gottman Level I. I have personal interest in the Enneagram Types and find significant value in its use to raise insight on an individual and relational level. In addition to working with adults, my 19+ years working with children has granted significant experience with individual as well as family therapy. These opportunities have been with acute clients as well as those going through life transitions needing a little guidance. I value the importance of a systems approach that not only looks at the client but the many areas of their life. I believe in the importance of reflecting not only on client needs but the impact that comes from their surrounding environment (family, workplace, school, peer relationships, etc).
