I take an eclectic, collaborative, and personalized approach to therapy, drawing from ACT, CBT, and other evidence-based modalities. In our first session, we can take time to get to know each other, explore your life experiences, and identify what you hope to achieve. Your goals may shift and evolve over time - and that's completely okay. You're in the driver's seat, and I am here to support you.
