Your Therapy Process
Therapy looks different for everyone. Your therapy process is grounded in meeting you were you are, moving at a pace that feels safe, and using approaches that support meaningful, lasting growth and healing. Our work together is collaborative and shaped by your goals, your experiences, and what feels most helpful to you as you move forward.
Teens & Adolescents
The teen years can be both meaningful and challenging, filled with change, pressure, and big emptions. I work with teens of all ages and their families to create a supportive space where adolescents can feel understood, respected, and safe to be themselves. My work focuses on healing from trauma, strengthening communication, and navigating family dynamics, school pressures, and life stressors, while also supporting teens in managing anxiety, building healthy coping skills, and developing confidence as they grow.
Adults
Life is full of transitions, and at times those changes can feel overwhelming or hard to navigate alone. I work with adults to build confidence, manage stress and anxiety, and explore the impact of past and present experiences, including trauma. Together, we focus on strengthening coping skills, improving relationships and communication, and creating healthier, more sustainable patterns that support growth, clarity, and well-being.
Trauma-Informed Therapy & Healing
Trauma can affect how we think, feel, and respond long after an experience has passed. Trauma-informed therapy focuses on creating safety, building stability, and working through experiences at a pace that feels supportive and manageable, while honoring your strengths and resilience.
I use evidenced-based, trauma-informed approaches, including EMDR and TF-CBT, to support healing. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapy that helps the brain reprocess distressing memories so they feel less overwhelming and no longer hold the same emotional charge. TF-CBT (Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) is a structured, supportive approach that helps individuals - especially children and teens - understand trauma responses, build coping skills, and change unhelpful thought patterns connected to traumatic experiences.
Whether you are working through a single event or the effects of ongoing or past trauma, our work will focus on helping you regain a sense of safety, strengthen coping skills, and move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and emotional balance.
Couples & Families
Relationships and family life can be deeply meaningful, and they can also be a source of stress, conflict, or disconnection, especially during times of change or strain. I work with couples and families to create a supportive space where each person feels heard, understood, and respected.
Our work may focus on improving communication, strengthening connection, navigating conflict, and addressing patterns that feel stuck or unhelpful. Whether you are working through ongoing challenges, adjusting to a new season of life, or supporting a child or teen, therapy can help create healthier, more supportive relationships and a stronger sense of understanding within your family.
