We often find it difficult to ask for help. We also need someone who will listen, and have our back. Someone who will walk beside us, reflect, or simply listen. Together, we can work to keep you connected to the positive skills you likely already have! We can find space to work through any past trauma. You might be at the beginning of a journey, in the middle or further along. I am trained to apply the therapeutic skills, encouragement and perspective you might learn to use yourself. Along with adults and couples, I work with children ages 7-21 . We live in a changing world. Together we can strengthen our foundation...for life!
I employ Client-Centered, Humanistic Psychology, in combination with teaching CBT skills. I am trained to listen. It is an important aspect of therapy, being heard and understood. We often go through life feeling no one understands us, really gets us. Everyone deserves to be listened to, and heard. I would be honored to be part of your experience.
Collaboration in a safe environment can be key for many who are looking to increase empathy. We need to feel safe and respected when in a therapeutic space. Here, our true self, perhaps temporarily submerged in the whirlwind of life, is encouraged to reemerge. Let's go on this journey together! Or maybe you are exploring to find yourself for the first time.

With couples, I teach folks to become aware of how they communicate with each other often in triggering ways that are not always visible to our consciousness! With individuals, it is the same, process, now directed only at yourself. We have parts in us which we need to understand better. This concept is drawn from the I.F.S. model, which stands for Internal Family Systems. Lets work together!

I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in my practice. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and then decide the most appropriate ways to help you make progress. With CBT, we'll look at how your thoughts affect your emotions and experience. During treatment, I'll help you learn how to push back against those thoughts to change your feelings for the better.
