I believe that people are innate problem solvers. However, in order to solve problems successfully, we need three key ingredients: information, capacity, and skills. Ideally, therapy isn’t about solving the problem for you, it’s about exploring the problem with you so you can determine how these ingredients are at play and develop your own methods to get them. Sometimes, I like to describe therapy as being an editor of the story you’re writing—they're your words and it is your story, but one can get lost in how to be an effective story-teller. A good editor serves as a guide to help you, the author, produce your best work.
My therapeutic approach incorporates a variety of modalities including Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavior Therapy and Psychodynamic treatment. While each type of treatment involves different modalities for understanding a problem, all of them are based on a foundation of building an emotionally safe relationship to foster insight and awareness.
It is common to have ambivalence about engaging in therapy without knowing how you might fit with a provider. We can start with a free 15 minute phone call and determine if it would be helpful to meet for a session. Sometimes, it can take a meeting or two to figure out if it feels like a good fit. I provide only video appointments at this time.
