Look for patterns in the present & past, discuss how your relationships & experiences have impacted you, & use the therapy relationship to improve your bonds outside the consulting room. We may articulate your values and help you to live by them.

My approach is focused on building a working relationship in which you can trust it enough to reveal previously unearthed thoughts and feelings, knowing that they will be received with compassion, curiousity, and transparency.
. . . . discover the real connections in your life; the opportunities for you to become a stronger, healthier, more virtuous person; how well you relate to self, others, and the world; and how you can be THE agent in all you think, feel, and do.

While I value the exploration of our motives, wishes, desires, hopes, and fears, and while I am very much a relationally-based clinician, I like to be practical and focus on the "now what?" of people's issues. Together we get to discover "the way."
We will work together to understand your problems and symptoms (and how they interact) followed by implementation of practical and research-driven solutions all couched in a nurturing and collaborative environment.

I balance kindness and compassion with a focus on helping you to create concrete changes through the use of therapeutic techniques that are evidenced-based which means these methods have been consistently shown effective through research.
Together we will allow all of yourself to come to the forefront, focusing on the present, the past, any and all factors that hold you back from being your truest version of your self.

Therapy is a sacred place to slow down, to process, to think with another who privileges your thoughts, feelings and ideas. I care about the moment to moment feel of the therapy and will check in to ensure you are getting out of it what you need.
During our sessions we will explore how thinking affects behavior, develop effective coping skills, and experience willingness to live life as it is when it is aligned with our values.

In therapy I will help you identify what matters most and the barriers preventing you from achieving your goals. I use a person-centered approach - you are the expert in your life. My role is to listen, and provide tools to help you be you best.
