I believe in therapy as a way of healing, self-learning, growth, and processing the challenges that life throws at us. During our therapy sessions, we will explore how foundational relationships and experiences may have created patterns in the ways in which you act or engage in relationships presently. We will work together to identify areas of focus and create pathways towards meaningful reconnection with yourself and those around you.
My approach is collaborative and relationship-driven. I draw from psychodynamic and attachment theories and incorporate aspects of mindfulness into my practice. I have a special interest in working with adolescents and families.
Beginning or restarting therapy can create some nervousness and anxiety. I am happy to talk through what it could look like for us to work together. If you think we might be a good fit and would like to learn more, please reach out to me for a free initial 15 minute phone consultation.
