Individual Therapy for Adults
Personalized, Evidence-Based Support for Life's Challenges
Are you struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or relationship challenges? Individual therapy offers a dedicated, confidential space where we work together to understand what's holding you back and build a path forward.
In our one-on-one sessions, my focus is entirely on you and your needs. We begin by identifying your desired outcomes, followed by exploring your past experiences and challenges, then developing practical tools that help you navigate life's obstacles with resilience and clarity.
What is Individual Therapy?
Individual therapy is a collaborative, one-on-one relationship designed to help you process difficult emotions, heal from past experiences, and develop sustainable strategies for living a more balanced, intentional life. Whether you're managing anxiety, processing depression, healing from trauma, or navigating relationship difficulties, therapy provides a safe, non-judgmental space to explore what matters most to you.
My office is a welcoming, affirming space for LGBTQIA+ individuals and their families. I have experience supporting parents as they navigate the coming out or transitioning process with their adult children.

My Therapeutic Approach
My approach to individual therapy is grounded in evidence-based treatments tailored to your needs. I primarily utilize:
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) – Helping you identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) – Building skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness
Psychodynamic Psychotherapy – Exploring deeper patterns and how past experiences shape your present life
Sessions are designed to meet you where you are by balancing insight with practical strategies that help you move from merely enduring to genuinely living. Clients often describe my approach as grounded, collaborative, and conversational focused on validation, understanding, and forward movement.
