I most often work with clients who experience chronic anxiety, difficulty coping with emotions, and who struggle to navigate conflict in relationships. These patterns are often a result of relational trauma, experienced in childhood or youth. I am passionate about supporting my clients to deepen their sense of self, through strengthening self-identity, trust and compassion, so they can navigate life with confidence and with meaningful connections. I work well with clients who are hesitant about therapy or who have not had success in the past.
My approach to therapy prioritizes deep understanding of my clients to support changing old coping patterns. I use a down-to-earth, conversational and experiential style. My goal is to form a therapeutic relationship where the client feels a sense of agency in the process - therapy occurs as a partnership.
If you think I might be the right therapist for you, send me a message to book a free 15 I 15 minute consultation to discuss your goals. I will respond via email within 24 hours Monday-Friday.
