Our life experiences create a set of parts within us that we carry in our daily lives, and that show up both when we most and least expect them to. Together, we will welcome each and every part of yourself and create a safe space to explore the ways in which they impact your life. While these parts have developed within us over time, and may have defined our past, we can gain a sense of control over them, so, they do not have to define our future. Together, we will build the confidence to determine which parts of ourselves we need to empower, comfort, understand, and make space for, promoting self-understanding and growth.
To explore the impact of both past/present family dynamics in your life, I incorporate therapeutic techniques from Bowen’s and Internal Family Systems Therapy, along with Satir Transformational Systemic Therapy. To explore your thoughts/feelings/emotions both in- and out-side of your family system, I incorporate Cognitive (CBT), Dialectical (DBT) and ACT.
Our time together is open, collaborative, empowering, and honest. As a queer individual myself, I welcome all sexual and gender identities and expression. Through our time together, I aim to guide you towards recognizing and building upon the resources you have within yourself, so that you can access these resources outside of the therapeutic setting.

Working with ADHD, I offer different approaches to managing symptoms, whether it be through workbook exercises, short videos with tools, planners that break tasks down, etc. Working with Self Esteem, I use Satir's approach, along with a Self Confidence Workbook and Strengths-Based Therapy. With addiction, I incorporate the SMART workbook, IFS parts work, online groups/workshops, etc.

In our first session, we will explore what is bringing you to therapy at this time. Once we establish what is coming up for you, we will develop goals to best help you manage moving forward. Regardless of the therapeutic approach we begin with, I always prioritize creating a space of self-acceptance, empowerment, safety and honesty.
