From a humanistic foundation and with an emphasis on experiential methods, I help children, tweens, teens, and adults grow through their experiences and discover new ways of being.
Before you read on, take a moment to breathe. Inhale slowly, breathing in through your nose, filling your chest with air. Notice your chest rise, expanding until it feels tight. Now hold that breath; hold it for just a few beats… And release. Release all that air in one long slow breath out through your mouth. Notice your shoulders droop and your mind clear, ever so slightly. This might the first full breath you’ve taken in a long time. And it’s no wonder why: life can overwhelm us with so much worry, anger, doubt, shame, and sadness that we feel breathless.

In alignment with Humanistic views, I believe that each person is an expert on themselves and I, as your therapist, am here as a guide towards growth.
Reaching out and asking for help is one of the hardest yet most vital parts of growth and self improvement in our lives. We all need help at some point - yes, even me! Therapy can not only help in dealing with the chaos life throws at us, but also help us learn how and when to ask for that help. I firmly believe that everyone deserves a safe environment to explore oneself and improve overall mental health. I'm also incredibly passionate about advocating for the expansion of mental health awareness through psychoeducation and increasing access to quality care.

My client population includes, individuals seeking life balance, establishing a recovery network for long-term sobriety from addiction, including alcohol and mood altering substances. I offer services to teens and young adults transitioning to college, and career development. I will address anxiety and depression through the session as it relates to these transitions. I encourage working with families/couples to address boundaries, communication skills, and family history of addiction and mental health. I like to focus on the solutions, and less on the problems with individuals and families.

For the vast majority of us, being happily coupled does not come naturally - it is a skill we have to learn. Luckily, these skills are teachable and learnable.

Humanistic Therapists

How does humanistic therapy work?

One tenet of humanistic therapy is that people are good. The humanistic approach is concerned with a person’s ability to accept oneself. It likewise encourages a person to overcome self-criticism and self-defeating tendencies, as well as disapproval from others. This approach also emphasizes self-actualization and treating an individual as a whole person. A foundation of this therapy type: The patient is the expert in their life, and treatment often takes the individual’s lead.

Is humanistic therapy evidence-based?

Humanistic therapy is an evidence-based practice. Research has found that humanistic therapy can lead to significant improvement, and for some people it can be just as effective as other therapies, such as Cognitive behavioral therapy. The benefits of humanistic therapy are enduring.

How long does humanistic therapy last?

The goal of humanistic therapy is to understand a person’s day-to-day experiences. While sessions can be short-term and last over a few months, therapy can sometimes continue beyond that and last up to a year or more. And because patients learn the theory behind humanistic therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have been completed.

Is humanistic therapy effective?

According to research, many patients find success with humanistic therapy. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in addressing poor self-esteem and self-sabotage, as well as improving conditions including anxiety and depression. Improvements in problem areas can be long standing, as individuals can continue working on themselves by using the tools they’ve learned during treatment.
