It is a great privilege to be entrusted with the sacred work of helping individuals navigate life's issues. The therapeutic relationship is unlike any other. In this space, you are unconditionally valued and empathically listened to with your best interests in mind. Together, we collaboratively work toward your personalized goals and develop compassionate curiosity toward the pieces of your story, which help us gain insight into past and current functioning. I would be honored to help you on this journey.
I use a non-pathologizing and integrated approach while working collaboratively with my clients to empower them to lean into their values and strengths, develop new skills, and learn how to create a more adaptive narrative about who they are. I use evidence-based modalities that are personalized for each client.
I honor the huge step it takes to initiate seeking counseling. It can feel intimidating and scary. I strive to create a safe environment and pay attention to body cues to ensure we stay within your comfort levels. Therapy can be uncomfortable as layers are revealed, but I do my best to balance that tension therapeutically.
