Therapeutic Approach
​
​
I utilize a mindfulness-based and trauma informed approach to therapy. I believe every person is on a different journey through life, and I do my best to honor each individual's journey while working towards the goals set for our work together. My focus is on helping clients work to become more connected with themselves and the relationships around them, in addition to gaining the coping skills to manage what life throws at us. The ultimate goal for our work together in therapy is to create a collaborative, non-judgmental and open space for clients to be able to explore and get to know the parts of themselves that are often hidden or have been stored away and reconnect to the most authentic versions of themselves.
Education and Experience
I attended the University of Nevada, Las Vegas for both my undergraduate degree in Psychology and Communication Studies, as well as receiving my Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy. I have experience working with a variety of populations and presenting concerns. I have spent time working in both agency and nonprofit settings workings with a variety of issues including; depression, anxiety. chronic illness, co-occurring disorders as well as connecting clients to support systems and advocating for clients within the systems that they are in.
