I see the therapeutic process as myself guiding my clients through difficult situations to move forward in life, and feel more energized. My clients say that I supportively nudge them along and that our therapeutic rapport is what helps them better find themselves.
Unfortunately, sometimes one of the symptoms of depression is the thought to end one's life. I can work with you to manage this symptom and to find healthy ways to cope with the depression.
Suicidal thoughts can be frightening and overwhelming. Many times they come from a place of hopelessness or a feeling like I don't have options. My goal for clients is to help find their options in life and reclaim control over their thoughts and future.
I am an eclectic therapist who utilizes multiple modes of therapy including Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques, Solution Focused, and Motivational Interviewing approaches in order to create a personalized, client centered experience.
We are here to help individuals talk about and manage thoughts of suicide. We provide a safe and supportive environment to offer healing and recovery from thoughts of suicidal ideation.

Passive suicidal ideation is common, but it can feel really scary. I'm here to take the stigma off of this occurrence. I'm here to listen, without pressure, and guide you towards finding fulfiment, connection, and support.
Experiencing suicidal thoughts can profoundly affect individuals with addictions, relationship issues, or depression. A person battling addiction may view suicide as an escape from cravings, while relationship problems or depression may lead to feelings of hopelessness and self-harm ideation. To support them, I'd provide a safe space for expression, encourage open communication, and collaborate on coping strategies like seeking professional help and self-care activities, aiming to offer reassurance and empowerment.
