Have you been struggling with managing the changes life has dealt to you? I have worked with individuals from six months to ninety-eight years old, couples, and groups of individuals to support them in their life changes and help them address their needs through therapeutic interventions. My approach to therapy relies on the ability to create safety and developing a strong therapeutic alliance with you. I view this alliance as the vehicle for change that you are looking for. I want to work to meet you where you are at, so that you feel understood and heard in your experience.
My areas of expertise include individuals and couples experiencing depression, anxiety, self esteem issues, stage of life/transition issues, grief and loss, and relationship issues. I also have a particular interest in working with neurodiverse individuals.
I address these experiences by consistently utilizing a strengths-based perspective with you and utilizing several modalities, including psychodynamic therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, and dialectical behavioral therapy. When working with couples, I draw from both the Gottman Method and Emotionally Focused Therapy.
