I work primarily from a relational and psychodynamic perspective, an approach that is slower than some other methods, but often more transformative and long-lasting. My work takes place at the level of the innermost self, parts that may be unknown or consciously rejected. In my view, mental health struggles are not random blips of brain chemistry, but connect to our histories, personalities, desires, and fears. There is no one-size-fits-all therapy: we build this practice together as we go. Through a process of nonjudgmental curiosity, I create a safe space for self-discovery and acceptance.
I enjoy working with adults from all walks of life and with a wide variety of problems and concerns, including depression, anxiety, grief and mourning, identity issues, trauma, and relationship problems. I welcome and have experience working with LGBTQIA+ and neurodiverse clients, as well as those from alternative lifestyles/subcultures.
I have completed a doctoral (Psy.D.) program and am currently working toward licensure as a psychologist. I work under the supervision of a licensed clinician I can consult about my work. I have over three years of experience in community mental health and college counseling settings, as well as several years in social work prior to my graduate training.
