I believe you were born whole. You already have everything you need to succeed and thrive. I am here to create a safe, supportive environment in which you can try new and scary things. When you learn it is okay to “mess up”, you can do anything.
I provide my clients unconditional support and acceptance. I value all of my client’s parts, and create space for all of my client’s emotions. I stay with my clients when they feel uncomfortable and fear they are doing something wrong. I celebrate my client's strengths in these moments, and invite my clients to let go of the need to get things "right".
I help my clients create new patterns of interaction. I take a compassionate, direct approach. I focus on emotion, and explore the feelings that arise as my clients interact with themselves and the world around them. I gently interrupt my clients when they start to use old coping behaviors, so they can practice interacting with emotion in new ways.
