Are you struggling with avoidance, anger, overworking, excessive substance use, or impulsivity? Do you have a hard time saying no, or setting healthy boundaries for yourself? These behaviors might feel like they are running your life, but in fact they are only parts of who you are.
My sessions tend to be unstructured to allow for exploration and insight-building. I also teach concrete skills to help you become more mindful, regulate your nervous system, and tolerate distress. When it comes to substance use, I use a harm reduction model. I also work with many people whose goal is total abstinence.

We may experience trauma, abuse, addiction, but I believe that with skillfully guided therapy, a person can rebound from adversity, rebuild, repair, and create a whole life with self-love and the ability to connect with others to create community.
In therapy, my goal is to use a person-centered approach and focus on the issues most pressing to you. I hope to create a warm, welcoming space for my clients and use a collaborative approach to resolve the issues we explore. In my opinion, being solution-focused and identifying strengths and barriers are critical to creating sustainable change.

Are you struggling with difficult family dynamics or a lack of support from your environment? Are you finding that the tools that you have turned to cope, like substance use and avoidance, has taken hold of your life? Are you feeling exhausted or constrained by treatment that sees your experience as a disease and dispenses formulaic solutions? You are not your symptoms and you deserve care from someone who wants to join you, sees you as the multi-layered complex person you are and supports your vision of healing in mind.
I’ll help you tap into your authentic motivations and support you in making sense of your life in the context of previous relationships, social forces, and biology. Diagnoses are tools to identify a path forward, not a life sentence. I adapt evidence-based and somatic interventions so that your agency and empowerment comes first.
