My approach to counseling is to allow you a safe place to explore the issues that bring you to counseling. By talking through things, it allows you to gain insight into what is going on and make sense of things.
Collaborate to 1) uncover root causes for present feelings and behaviors and 2) develop strategies and tools to reduce unwanted feelings or behaviors and 3) build confidence, a sense of agency, and greater understanding of self and others.

I draw on multiple theories (attachment, person centered, CBT, motivational interviewing, family systems, narrative) to reflect how past experiences shape current feelings and behaviors. I help remove shame/guilt through education and reframing.
Work collaboratively to understand how your history (trauma, attachment, past challenges), your emotional life, and your own views about yourself contribute to your troubles. More insight, emotional process, and growing can lead to more peace.

I believe we are all complex creatures that are trying to make meaning of our lives in a strange world. I am interested in your history, your early relationships with your parents/primary caregivers, and the way your mind makes sense of your life.
We'll explore your relationships to partners, friends, and family; your relationship to your body, sexuality, gender, and race; and your relationship to larger meaning and purpose. We'll map out the topography of your life from a bird's-eye view.

I believe that what we feel — even and maybe especially the painful stuff — is a message from a wise part of us telling us something we need to hear. We'll slowly, compassionately work together to listen to what it is our deeper selves are saying.
We will explore your unique experience that got you to where you are today. We'll learn how experiences and environments changed you. Through ideas and experiences we will collaborate to create new habits and instill new behaviors.

I take a structured adaptive approach to therapy, ensuring we're moving in a direction that's productive and tailored to your unique needs. I don't start with a one-size-fits all approach — I will bring methods and modalities that match your needs.
