Services

My practice focuses on helping individuals process difficult emotions and live more meaningful lives, whether you are managing a diagnosed mental health condition, are facing a current stressor, or are simply feeling stuck. I aim to create a non-judgmental space and to be authentic and compassionate in my work. I am dedicated to providing culturally responsive care and welcome clients of diverse backgrounds and identities.

My approach integrates cognitive and behavioral principles, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), and mindfulness. I also offer evidence-based trauma-focused therapies, including cognitive processing therapy (CPT) and prolonged exposure (PE). I believe that therapy is most effective when it is tailored to the individual needs, strengths, and values of each client.

What is Evidence-Based Practice?

My approach is based on the principles of evidence-based practice, which combines current scientific evidence with the client’s values and preferences, as well as my clinical experience. Part of evidence-based practice is ensuring proper assessment and having clear, collaborative treatment goals with clients. Certain therapies have been shown to be more effective for specific symptoms and mental health conditions. Together, we will discuss treatment options and create a treatment plan. In addition, evidence-based therapy involve active participation during and between therapy sessions. This may involve take home activities and exercises that encourage clients to practice skills that they learn in therapy and apply them in their own lives.
