As a clinical psychologist, a psychiatric nurse practitioner, and a human being; my approach is highly individualized and integrative. I start by simply listening, then tailor a treatment that is as unique the individual.
We will work on trauma identification, clarity of experiences, and attachment styles and healing of deep wounds. I work through trauma treatment including EMDR, psychosomatic and other healing approaches.

My primary therapeutic orientation is relational psychodynamic. This means I am interested in getting to know all about your past, your present, and your goals for the future. I believe our early relationships are templates for our symptoms.

We will work together, meaning I help guide you and ask questions to encourage you to explore your inner world and you are open to the exploration and possibility of change. My approach requires us to both be participants in our work together.

I try to balance being compassion with being honest and direct with my feedback and support. My goal that you walk away with validation, new ways to cope, and some helpful things to think about outside of sessions.
