My clients are typically adults from all cultural and religious backgrounds. They come to me with a variety of experiences that need attention; depression, anxiety, panic disorder, grief, obsessive compulsive disorder, stress, attention deficit disorder, vocational issues, difficulty finding meaning or purpose, trauma, women's health, men's health, LGTBQ+, body and self-image, cultural intersectionality issues, and social justice issues to name a few. Most often however, my clients thrive when they feel seen, heard, and validated within their experience. I work collaboratively with clients to ensure good pacing, trust, and comfort.
I pull resources from a variety of therapeutic modalities including integrative cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, person-centered therapy, solutions-focused therapy, narrative therapy, and mindfulness practices. I recommend and offer solutions that I myself practice. A therapist can only take you as far as they have gone themselves.
Therapy is not a 'one size fits all' formula but rather a unique and individualized experience developed within the client and therapist relationship. Therapy provides an empathetic and safe space for you to explore and identify ways to create positive change within your own life. We will work together to achieve a mindstate of "thrive, not just survive".
