I utilize tenets of narrative, emotionally focused, intersectional feminist, and liberation psychology practices.
As relational beings, the experience of feeling connected to our authentic self and that of others is essential to wellness. Investigating the multi-layered stories that are told about us, which often inform how we view ourselves, is critical to finding alternative ways of stepping into the power of our truths. Exploring, and interrogating, the messages that are intimately tied to culture, ancestry, and community can offer wisdom necessary in addressing problems in living folks experience. Whether seeking individual, relational, or family therapy, I believe the healing journey is inherently a collective one.

Pursuing therapy is not easy! Mental health is becoming destigmatized, but there are many factors which influence our struggle to see therapy as an empowering choice versus a misperceived "sign of weakness." Your human is your strength which is pain, suffering, joy, accomplishment, struggle and so much more! Therapy is not about fixing you but about finding you, embracing you, and learning how to appreciate everything about you good, bad and ugly. Many of us have been raised under the impression our struggles are not normal and we should "control" our distress which is at the root of many of our issues.

Helping clients move through depression, anxiety, trauma (PTSD), life transitions and family-of-origin issues are my main focus areas of practice. My approach is client-centered, meeting you right where you are and deferring to you as your own expert. I am solution-focused and action oriented. It's my goal to help clients get out of therapy. While we can't be sure how long that will take, my aim is to help you get back to living your life...which isn't in my office.

Narrative Therapists

Is narrative therapy evidence-based?

Narrative therapy is not well-studied, and it may not be as effective in treating mental health conditions when compared with evidence-based treatments such as cognitive behavioral therapy. Some small studies do show that depressed and anxious individuals who were treated with narrative therapy reported improvement in anxiety and depression symptoms.

How long does narrative therapy last?

Narrative therapy is less structured when compared with psychoanalysis, for example. Narrative therapy is more open-ended and may not be limited to a set number of sessions. It is common for clients to be in therapy for a few months, and sometimes a year or longer. Patients see their therapist one to two times a week, though the exact schedule and timeline may vary depending on a person’s challenges and progress. Individuals can also practice the principles of narrative therapy after treatment has ended.

Does narrative therapy work?

Narrative therapy can help a person manage or reduce symptoms of conditions like depression or anxiety. This type of therapy encourages a person to reflect on the moments of their life when their particular problem was not at the forefront of their minds—perhaps life celebrations, achievements, and other successes. The individual is encouraged to rewrite their storyline as if their particular problem was not part of their life. This therapy may offer benefits that are hard to measure.

What are the possible limitations of narrative therapy?

Narrative therapy is person-centered or client-centered, and the health professional pays more attention to the subjective narratives that are constructed by the client, as opposed to other objective measures. The therapist privileges the individual’s perspective over all others. This open form may feel frustrating for individuals seeking a more structured approach; certainly, no one therapy type will work for every individual.
