My approach

Therapy is never a “one size fits all”, so I bring the best of multiple modalities to assist you on your healing journey (see below for why I love these modalities) as well as an array of psychoeducation, grounding techniques, and somatic experiencing practices that can serve as resources to help you move through your healing process with an understanding of what is happening and practical tools for how to cope.​

​

I consider myself to have a relational style--meaning I believe compassionate connections are made through relating to common experiences. While you and your experience are the focus of therapy, I am not afraid to share my own experience if it could help. All the modalities I use in my practice are what I use in my own therapy and healing journey--I never like to suggest something for my Client's that I haven't tried or use myself.​

​

I love what I do because I get to see Clients transform their relationship to the past. We can't change what has already happened, but we can change our relationship to it. When we no longer need to avoid the past or are held prisoner by old beliefs and unhelpful behaviors our current lives shift in significant ways. While a reduction of symptoms such as anxiety, depression, or intrusive thoughts are possible, I find that connection to "who I really am", ability to "trust myself", and clarity of what is truly important are all additional and worthwhile benefits of effective therapy. Amazingly, I also often see radical healing of physical pain and chronic medical issues.​

The answers are within you--we just need tune in and listen...
