Description
Using cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused techniques as a foundation, I tailor my approach to each client’s unique needs, circumstances, and developmental stage. I recognize that not all methods work for everyone, so I draw from a variety of tools and strategies to ensure our work together is both effective, meaningful, and relatable. Through virtual sessions, we can connect wherever you feel most comfortable—making therapy as convenient as it is impactful. Ready to take the first step?
