Career Counseling

I help clients explore career transitions and align work with their values, drawing on my counseling background, as well as my experience in human resources and organizational management. Using a collaborative, strengths-based approach, we identify obstacles, build decision-making skills, and create practical strategies. Whether starting a new path, seeking fulfillment, or managing work stress, I support clients in making intentional, confident career choices.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Drawing on multiple continuing education classes and personal readings, I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors. Drawing on evidence-based techniques, we work together to challenge negative beliefs, manage stress, and develop practical coping skills. CBT is collaborative and goal-focused, helping clients build resilience, increase self-awareness, and create lasting, positive change in daily life.

Mindfulness-based

Drawing on years of training and my own personal practice, I use mindfulness-based approaches to help clients increase awareness, manage stress, and respond to thoughts and emotions with greater clarity. By practicing present-moment focus, clients learn to reduce rumination, improve emotional regulation, and cultivate self-compassion. Mindfulness techniques are integrated into therapy to support lasting change, greater calm, and a deeper connection with yourself.

LGBTQ Issues

I provide an affirming space for LGBTQ+ clients to explore identity, relationships, and the impact of minority stress. My approach is inclusive and supportive, whether you’re navigating coming out, family dynamics, or the challenges of living authentically. Therapy is centered on building resilience, self-acceptance, and a stronger connection to your values and community.

Depression

I support clients experiencing depression by helping them untangle negative thought patterns, increase motivation, and reconnect with what brings meaning. Using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and other evidence-based approaches, we’ll work together to challenge self-critical beliefs, build healthy routines, and strengthen coping skills so you can move toward greater balance, energy, and a renewed sense of hope.

Anxiety

I specialize in treating anxiety using evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP). Together we’ll identify the thought patterns and behaviors that keep anxiety going, and gradually face feared situations in a safe, supportive way. My goal is to help you build coping skills, reduce avoidance, and gain confidence in handling uncertainty and worry.

Codependency

I help clients struggling with codependency develop healthier boundaries, improve self-esteem, and build more balanced relationships. Using evidence-based tools, we’ll explore patterns of people-pleasing, over-functioning, or difficulty saying no, and practice new ways of relating that honor both your needs and your connections with others. My goal is to support you in creating relationships that feel mutual, authentic, and sustainable.

Men's Issues

I work with men who are seeking to better understand themselves, their emotions, and their relationships. Many struggle with pressure to “have it all together” or difficulty expressing vulnerability. In therapy, we’ll challenge unhelpful patterns, explore new ways of coping, and strengthen your ability to build authentic, supportive connections with others.
