I specialize in working with trauma, healing within relationships, and building an integrated sense of identity. I work with individuals who struggle with healing old wounds and those who feel stuck in their thoughts and experiences. I want people to feel that with their experiences, they can find new ways of relating and being that bring out the strengths they already have.
I believe that the most important factor in therapy is the relationship between clients and the therapist. In our work, we will work against relational patterns, beliefs, and attachments that are no longer helpful for you with a combination of experiential and cognitive therapies.
Therapy can be a big step. In meeting with you, I hope to provide the support that's needed. I look forward to working with you! I invite you to email or call if interested.

I use therapeutic modalities that emphasize experiencing and acknowledging emotional processes and breaking unhelpful negative emotional patterns. My therapeutic style is primarily attachment-based and emotionally focused. Within trauma work, this will involve establishing safety and stability and working to confront the challenging feelings that may have been pushed aside.
