Annie Dillard wrote "How we spend our days is of course, how we spend our lives." As you begin or resume therapy we can explore the satisfying aspects of your life and determine where you want to make shifts or radical changes toward health and ease of being. My approach to therapy is rooted in the therapeutic relationship we will develop to explore compassionate, practical solutions to the unique challenges you face. Trust, empathy, hope, mindfulness, and humor are the foundations of my approach to living and healing.
I offer therapy for adults (individual, couples/multi-partnered), as well as psychological evaluations for all ages. My work is affirming, strengths-based, trauma-informed, and deeply intentional. I practice narrative therapy to summarize and extend our sessions with music, poetry, articles, exercises, and more.
You will be met with acceptance and appreciation for the strengths that have served you to this point and the struggles that are limiting your growth. Get in touch with me to determine whether I am a good fit for the healing and growth you hope to accomplish.
