Therapy is a path to freedom; it's about creating greater psychological flexibility and the chance to break unhelpful habits and to make choices based on what's actually important to us. In order to do this, we need to learn about ourselves better and to understand how we've learned to handle life in the way that we do. Are you interested in getting to know your real, authentic self that exists beyond habits, social rules, and your own learning experiences? Are you interested in a contemplative, mindfulness-based approach to utilizing your own capacity for compassion and growth? If so, let's talk.
My goal with each session is to have you leave with some bit of self-knowledge you didn't have before. Over time, these will open opportunities for you to break patterns of behavior that don't serve you well. In some cases I will prescribe homework that can involve journaling, reflection, meditation, lifestyle modification, and other techniques.
I like to work with a broad range of clients and issues, but have had the most experience with mood and anxiety disorders, trauma, substance use disorders, and LGBTQ+ issues. I'm interested in folks with a wide range of life experiences and cultural experience. Book a phone consultation with me if you'd like to see if we're a good fit.

I was trained as a generalist and very much think of myself as one, meaning that I enjoy working with a wide range of presenting issues in adolescents and adults. I have been especially lucky to spend a lot of time working with chemical dependency, anxiety, trauma, and LGBTQ issues. I'll let you know if your concern is outside of my wheelhouse!

Every person's psychotherapy is different, but the labels you see here are some evidence-based practices that I will draw from. I think the deepest change comes from understanding yourself better, but there are a lot of tools we can use to do that as well as to make some useful changes along the way.
