We need two things when engaging in therapy: trust and respect. In order to create a positive therapeutic relationship, we need to feel connected with our therapist and be provided with a safe space to explore our inner world. Honoring and respecting those two factors are the most important interventions that can be used. Whether seeking improvements in behavior, increased emotion regulation, managing anxiety or depression, or seeking to understand past experiences; we will talk, we will play, we will laugh, we will grow- that goes for little ones, teens and grown ups.
I have experience working with individuals and families across the lifespan. I have a particular focus on early childhood (3-8 year olds and their caregivers), trauma work, and family dynamics. I come from a systems/attachment approach because humans exist in connection with others.
Whether you are seeking therapy for yourself, your child, or your family, you have already conquered the hardest part by beginning your search. Reach out and lets discuss your questions and concerns. Let's treat what you're experiencing an leave the labels behind. I look forward to being a part of your journey and your pursuit of wellness.
