Pain takes many forms: sorrow, anger, frustration, avoidance, etc. The pressure to be perfect is no friend to healing work, making it even more difficult to do. I want to offer a space for healing, acceptance, and vulnerability. I utilize authenticity, safety in non-judgment, and curiosity to help guide our work together. You already have all the answers. I want to help you put words to the feelings and teach you how to use the tools hidden away in the back of your mind.
I utilize collaboration, humor, thought challenging, and compassion to tailor to whatever you need in session. Therapy is a team sport and my goal is to create a team environment. Your entire self is welcome in the space, regardless of how anyone else feels about it. I have expertise in trauma, OCD, and PTSD but treat a wide array of disordered thought.
Think of it this way, I wouldn’t put you in a weight lifting competition if you’ve only lifted five pounds, but I will help you lift ten pounds, and continue to grow. I know how nutty it can be when you feel trapped by your own experience, but I'd love to be alongside you when you discover you aren't as trapped as you thought.

I often treat clients with OCD, trauma, and PTSD (both complex and event-based) through an attachment-based lens. Initial sessions tend to lean towards symptoms, struggles, and personal history, and we collaborate from there on goals and objectives to improve quality of life or feel some relief.
