I use evidence-based therapy methods (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Existential Therapy)... with a twist. I strive to use empathy to, in many ways, let the client take the lead.
✔ Identify the real force that is holding you back ✔ Elicit new perspectives on the problems that you are stuck on ✔Release whatever has been weighing on you to feel some much-needed relief ✔ Cultivate a stronger connection with self and other.

I adapt the therapy to you rather than expecting you to adapt to the therapy. My therapy style is collaborative. I see myself as a fellow traveler walking alongside you, assisting you in discovering and developing your inner expertise and strengths.

My approach to therapy is client centered and begins with a conversation to get to know you, your history, identities, struggles and strengths. Therapy begins as you are able to trust me and the process and honestly share your thoughts and feelings.
