In our work together you will come to understand who you are and how that came to be. You can then understand your relationship with yourself, the world, and others more deeply. We will get to the "root" of your pain and enable you to truly heal.
We will develop new insights and self awareness. This might include clarifying values, understanding relationship dynamics, or recognizing the impact past experiences have on current functioning. New insights provide direction for needed change.

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.
Understand patterns of behavior and self that have potentially gotten in your way of living the life you want. We will dive deep into your value system to understand whether you're living your own life, or the life you were told you should live.

I have a collaborative approach that helps clients feel safe, empowered, and help assess their readiness for change. As opposed to popular belief, there might not be a breakthrough or a light bulb moment, but it will be a steady process of insight.
Collaboratively help you to understand the underlying factors contributing to your distress, teach you ways to more effectively work through the symptoms you're experiencing, and increase your sense of engagement and enjoyment in life.

I work from an integrative approach, drawing on evidence-based interventions, clinical instincts, and the therapy relationship. I often use cognitive behavioral therapy as well as incorporate insight-oriented skills and emotional processing.
work through self-criticism, perfectionism, & shame; shift automatic reactions into mindful & intentional choices; help you cope with pain, loss, anxiety, & trauma; And more effectively ask for what you want while saying no to what you don't want.

My goal is to provide a safe, authentic, and collaborative space for you to better understand yourself and your goals, determine what is working for you and what may not be, and for you to feel emboldened to approach life in new and meaningful ways!
