I utilize Depth psychology, with a Humanistic approach.
I believe we all need help sometimes. Life is a journey, a journey that can be painful to navigate. It is my honor to walk beside you. It makes a difference to have someone that can help hold the burden until you find your own strength. It is my privilege to hold space as you work through trauma, pain, and grief. Transformation is a process, and to have support integrating the pain into the depths of your soul, is a gift of connection. Soul to soul. If you are searching for an advocate and a healer, it is not a coincidence you found me.

I am very humanistic and strength-based in my style and therapeutic approach, which allows me to get to know what is most important to you.
The search for a therapist can be difficult, so I am very glad you're here. I have over 15 years of experience in treating children and adolescents through an attachment and relational parent-child lens. I incorporate parenting support into each session in order to best support both you and your child. Much of my therapy with children also includes family therapy as I view parents and families as an integral part of treatment. When working with adults, the work tends to be longer term. I use an attachment and values based lens to get to the core of what my clients are struggling with in order to create new, healthier patterns.

Trauma is a manifold challenge. It is more than the intrusive thoughts and memories which won't be silent, the constant desire for solitude to avoid triggers, the irritability and frustration, or the heart-pounding 'every-second-is-an-eternity' panic. Frequently, individuals who have experienced trauma face secondary injuries, whether as a result of their symptoms or because of support systems which fail to be supportive. Then, there is the alienation: a sense that one no longer 'fits in' with others for many potential reasons. Perhaps the most challenging part, beyond all else, is the sense that you are no longer yourself.

Figuring out what life should look like after a loss can be one of life's most complex and confusing emotional journeys. Sometimes you feel too tired to keep trying. It can be discouraging to keep trying and wanting to progress towards relief. No matter the challenge (anxiety and/or depression included), carrying on day to day can be overwhelming and exhausting. It is easy for joy and happiness to disappear when surviving becomes our necessary focus. It is also difficult to manage long term when minimal progress has happened. You deserve the space to figure your grief's journey.

Humanistic Therapists
How does humanistic therapy work?
One tenet of humanistic therapy is that people are good. The humanistic approach is concerned with a person’s ability to accept oneself. It likewise encourages a person to overcome self-criticism and self-defeating tendencies, as well as disapproval from others. This approach also emphasizes self-actualization and treating an individual as a whole person. A foundation of this therapy type: The patient is the expert in their life, and treatment often takes the individual’s lead.
Is humanistic therapy evidence-based?
Humanistic therapy is an evidence-based practice. Research has found that humanistic therapy can lead to significant improvement, and for some people it can be just as effective as other therapies, such as Cognitive behavioral therapy. The benefits of humanistic therapy are enduring.
How long does humanistic therapy last?
The goal of humanistic therapy is to understand a person’s day-to-day experiences. While sessions can be short-term and last over a few months, therapy can sometimes continue beyond that and last up to a year or more. And because patients learn the theory behind humanistic therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have been completed.
Is humanistic therapy effective?
According to research, many patients find success with humanistic therapy. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in addressing poor self-esteem and self-sabotage, as well as improving conditions including anxiety and depression. Improvements in problem areas can be long standing, as individuals can continue working on themselves by using the tools they’ve learned during treatment.
