I believe we are all on a journey to know ourselves. What do you care about in this life? Are you living in a way that is in harmony with your values? Are there areas of you life that feel out of balance? Do you respond thoughtfully to life's challenges or do you react impulsively? These are meaningful and growth inspiring questions. Let's get to work!
Together we can clarify the habits and faulty thinking that keep us stuck and make gentle changes. I have over 15 years of working with people who struggle with depression, anxiety, substance use disorders and life transitions. I use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, Recovery Dharma and Seeking Safety treatment approaches.
We are all on this journey of discovery. There are times when we need safe and supportive guidance to find our way. It takes courage and self compassion to reach out and ask for guidance. The reward for that courage is the ability to live a better life.

I use aspects of IFS, CBT and aspects of DBT. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and look at patterns of behavior. There are also times when a Solution Focused Brief Therapy approach makes the most sense. The benefit of this is that we are able to focus on a specific problem or issue and make real time changes without spending a lot of time of your past.
