MY SPECIALTIES
INDIVIDUAL COUNSELING
I work with every client seeing them as the expert in themselves. I work in many forms of therapy within individual sessions. You can expect to explore the inner aspects and external stressors impacting you at any given time throughout treatment.
DEPRESSION
I utilize an eclectic approach using parts of self and IFS techniques, with an Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) framework to identify the internal narratives impacting the depressive habits and cognitive process.
COUPLES and RELATIONSHIP THERAPY
All relationships hit rough patches and need attention. I approach communication patterns and conflict patterns within all aspects of the relationship; along with the aspects each partner brings into the relationship.
MENS ISSUES
I work with men on the issues facing them within family, work, and friends, as well as overall motivation. I work with them to identify barriers to adaptive functioning, and implement effective patterns moving forward within all aspects of functioning.
NEURODIVERSE POPULATIONS
Prior to my counseling role, I worked with young adults and adults with intellectual struggles and developmental concerns. In this role, I provide a space to process the concerns within these areas as well as the sensory aspects. I also work with families to provide information on supports, resources, and interventions.
PARENTING DIFFICULTIES
STRESS & TRAUMA
I am trained in EMDR and utilize IFS/parts of self techniques to work with those struggling with trauma histories and traumatic experience in their individual stories. I utilize psychoeducation on mindful and physiological strategies to decrease stress reactions while processing the trauma responses cognitively.
I utilize many different types of therapy to assist in parenting interventions and ways to support across settings and situations. I offer coaching to parents as well when I am working with their children.
ADOLESCENTS
I work with adolescents to identify areas of self-motivation and distress which impact them in conflict and outcomes across settings.
FAMILY SYSTEM ISSUES
I work with adults on family of origin patterns and dynamics which continue to plague them in their current relationships and interactions. The family system we come from and the roles we play in relationships tend to become our fall back functioning when things are stressful.
LGBTQ+ COMMUNITY
I work with individuals on their experience(s) and navigating their own journey while building their self-confidence. I work to create a space of exploration and safety as we process these areas for each client.
ANXIETY
I utilize EMDR techniques and psychoeducation within the management techniques to decrease anxiety and the internal narratives which facilitate anxiety and the related patterns.
