I find that my favorite parts of therapy are unconventional. I love when a client tells me they didn't want to come to session but they show up anyway, and leave feeling like it was one of their best. I love when a client brings up decreasing to biweekly sessions, after recognizing they've gained genuine support outside of the therapy space and feel confident in managing between sessions. I love when a client comes in and talks about "random things" they've done and I get to see their passion. (Bonus points when I get to point out how that "random thing" actually demonstrates them getting closer to the life they want to live!).
I practice from a relational lens and focus heavily on the therapeutic relationship. I have found that modalities are not nearly as important if there is not enough safety felt in the room. While I have training in a variety of modalities (EMDR, Sand tray, I-CBT, ERP, KAP) I recognize that a therapist showing up as human can be incredibly helpful in itself.
I currently have availability for a LIMITED amount of new clients. If you resonated with anything mentioned above, I'd love to connect and see if we'd be a good fit!
Feel free to reach out by email or phone and we can discuss scheduling a free 10-15 minute consultation, or jump into an intake appointment!
