My counseling style is that of honesty and collaboration. You are the expert of your own life, but I hope to be a support in identifying goals that improve your quality of life and connect you more to what you value through our work together.
Together we will work towards your goals. You will increase control over the emotions that have been overwhelming you. You will feel empowered by your choices and gain insight about yourself.

I utilize emotion focused to assist client's with learning about their emotions. I will also utilize DBT skills such as mindfulness skills and distress tolerance. Depending on the needs of my client I will utilize a psychodynamic approach.
Help you understand your feelings and your experiences, help you heal from your past and manage the present, help you see how their thoughts, good or bad, impact how they feel and what they do. We will create goals focused on your unique situation.

My clients report feeling relieved to finally have a safe space to work through difficult feelings. I am responsive and engaged and provide feedback when needed. I don't leave my clients wondering what I am thinking.

I often use more skills-based therapies as we begin work together to decrease the frequency and intensity of your symptoms. After you feel more stable, we use more insight-based, psychodynamic, and trauma-informed therapies to create lasting change.
