I truly believe that the connection between therapist and client is what brings about lasting positive changes. In my role as a therapist, I make it my goal to provide a safe and inclusive environment where every issue, big or small, can be discussed comfortably. My dedication lies in working together with clients using a strengths-based approach to understand the reasons behind thoughts, feelings, and actions they want to change. I offer support and understanding to help with healing. My approa...

I believe that relationships determine a lot about how we interact with the world - in both helpful and less helpful ways. Our behaviors, attitudes, thoughts, feelings, and relationship styles are reinforced over time by our experiences, families, partners, environments, and culture. Psychotherapy can help when stress, trauma, life transitions, or difficult relationships call for new ways of coping and navigating our lives. My approach integrates evidence-based practices shown to be effe...

My approach is warm, perceptive, and clarifying. I primarily use the IFS model, which posits that we each contain an ecology of different parts that each have a valuable role to play within us. When these parts develop roles that are in conflict with one another, or with our external world, we can experience distress, confusion, disconnection, and shame. I work with clients to explore these areas with curiosity, compassion, and courage in service to promoting greater ease and sense of meaning in...

I approach therapy from an empathic, non-judgmental and supportive stance that encourages a collaborative relationship between client and therapist. The needs of my clients dictate the specific approach or skills I utilize, but I draw from a variety of theoretical orientations, including psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral and relational. In my private practice I provide individual psychotherapy to adults, including college students, to help them work through difficult experiences, make positiv...

I have experience working with many issues but much of my experience is rooted in depression, anxiety, ADHD, family issues, trauma, relationship issues, identity issues, and overall general life concerns and ...

Hey Hey Hey!
