Q&A
My clients have described me as warm, welcoming, engaging, open, safe, honest, encouraging, and easy to trust and relate with.
Emotions you struggle with in beginning therapy are accepted in this space. We will discuss autonomy and boundaries and provide a safe space for you to heal. Both acceptance of the past and effort to move toward the future will bring healing.
Learn about one another, identify what to focus on, and collaboratively choose approaches that utilize your strengths, complement your disposition, and treat what brought you to therapy. Through this process I hope we can transmute pain into peace.
As I move forward in my career, I am transitioning from short-term crisis interventions to long-term therapeutic relationships. I enjoy working with clients to improve emotional regulation, communication, relationships and/or sex lives, or trauma.
Like many therapists, I also have my own mental health issues—as they say, it takes one to know one.
I'm a member of Resilience Lab — the largest community of clinicians working collaboratively to produce better outcomes and improve mental health.
We share space as equals, and I’m very friendly. But boundaries are important–this is your therapy, not chats with a friend. I’ll likely laugh at your jokes, but I’m also going to need us to stop so we can find what they are conveying or hiding.
