I approach therapy through a non-pathologizing, trauma-informed, and harm reduction lens and understand that the client is the expert of their own experience. I view the clinical relationship as a tool for healing.
Figure out where your symptoms are coming from, and how your past has influenced your reactions to situations. We will use tools you have within yourself to get you where you need to be.

I like to know everything, no detail is too much for me. I like to know about hobbies, traditions, and beliefs to incorporate into treatment.
Work to identify strategies and techniques that can begin to offer some relief. We will also begin to alter problematic/less functional narratives that negatively impact your life. Self-compassion is a skill that I work on with almost every client.

It is my responsibility to pay attention to the big picture- noting common themes that come up. Often concerns that we have present differently across different domains (work, home, etc.) but the emotional underpinnings and impact can be similar.
Develop coping skills that can be useful both now and in the future. We will also work to identify negative thoughts, practice new skills, problem solve, and set goals so that you can fully live in the present moment.

An Integrative approach uses multiple approaches to help clients. In most cases, this means a combination of psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, and humanistic therapies. The approach is flexible and based on the needs of the client.
We can make sense of your current struggles and explore the deeper, underlying patterns that sustain them. We will identify recurring patterns of relating to yourself and others and support you in deepening self-awareness, connection, and agency.

I do not believe one-size-fits-all, but instead offer a trusting space for you to share what is going on. I support those who are curious about the origins of their symptoms in order to create a meaningful life in the present.
