Using compassion, knowledge, and experience I build strong therapeutic relationships to promote your growth and to develop healthy coping skills. Utilizing evidence-based approaches, within a holistic approach, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support growth and flexibility.
