“I hope to provide a safe space for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and concerns. Sessions will be guided with an emphasis on the important role of thinking in how clients feel and what they do. We’ll work together to solve current problems and improve positive thinking and behavior. I’ll help clients reframe their reactions and provide them with valuable tools to cope with life obstacles. If clients are looking to alleviate symptoms of stress and pain associated with past trauma, EMDR is a therapeutic intervention that can be very effective with treating trauma, PTSD, anxiety, and other mental health struggles. My goal as a therapist is to inspire change and improve the quality of my clients lives through self-awareness and self-exploration. ”
