Working With Me

What Empower means to me: Providing a space for clients to unapologetically explore their inner needs and desires, supporting them to utilize their strengths to express these needs through empathetic support.

My Philosophy: As individuals, we search for safety, and I believe this begins with finding safety within ourselves. I believe in supporting individuals in learning their strengths to aid in developing trust internally, and learning to translate this into their lives acting as their own best advocate.

What sessions with me look like: My modality is client focused/strength-based therapy with an emphasis on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). I believe in approaching each individual as they would like to be seen, and I work hard to develop an understanding based in acceptance, a passion for learning, and empathy. I work with individuals to provide a judgement free and safe space to explore how they experience their relationship with themselves, their relationship with others, and their environment. I also work with individuals to develop skills to confront and process emotions, life experiences and relationships which all impact the lens in how they perceive the world around them. My belief is that everyone is capable of living the life they have envisioned for themselves, and therapy helps to better understand where the journey begins for healing, finding safety, and believing in yourself.
