Individual Therapy

Plum Therapy and Wellness provides therapy in Gainesville, FL. Therapy can be a powerful resource on your journey of growth and healing. It can provide you with the tools and support you need to alleviate distress, develop new thinking patterns, heal from past experiences, and improve your well-being. I provide a safe, affirming environment for you to explore your concerns and process your feelings without fear of judgment.

Starting therapy takes a lot of courage. I believe therapy should be a collaborative process. I prioritize the importance of the therapeutic relationship and view clients as experts in their own lives. I take an individualized approach based on your needs, goals, and experiences. I utilize Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR), strengths-based, and mindfulness techniques to support my clients in reaching their goals. I value understanding you as a whole person and how the various identities you hold (e.g. sexual orientation, gender identity, race, ethnicity, spirituality, ability, etc.) shape your experiences. Together, we will work towards a deeper understanding of yourself and fostering a sense of resilience, acceptance, and fulfillment. You and your experiences matter, and you deserve a therapeutic space that honors and respects all of who you are.

I specialize in supporting self-critical, anxious teens and adults who want to better understand themselves and their past to live more present, fulfilling lives.
