Choosing the right therapist is a courageous step towards approaching change and growth. By listening with empathy and an open heart, a solid foundation for a brave space is established. Utilizing a trauma-informed lens; complex relationships, grief/loss, depression, anxiety, identity development, and stressful life events can be explored.
As an integrative therapist, the approach is centered with curiosity and collaboration through various talk therapy modalities including person-centered, psychodynamic, mindfulness, DBT, and Internal Family Systems "parts" work. Services can also include preparation and integration sessions for Psychedelic assisted therapy.
I value a confidential therapeutic environment to support your work towards your goals. If you're interested in determining if I am a good fit for you, please email me to schedule a complimentary 15 minute consultation.
