When we're struggling, it's healthy to look for help. With kindness, attention and experience as my guide, we will work to help you develop more self-compassion, understanding and acceptance. This will enable you to work more skillfully to change what you can and stop trying to change what you can't.
I use a variety of approaches, including CBT, mindfulness, psychodynamic and narrative therapies. I help people coping with chronic/acute depression/anxiety, substance over-use/abuse, compassion fatigue and burnout, grief and loss, sexual orientation and gender identity, aging, parenting, or adolescence issues.
You should expect to come away from our sessions feeling that you were understood and accepted. You should feel that you have gained a new perspective on whatever you brought into the session and have tools to practice between sessions. Whether we talked about current issues or long standing stressors, you should leave feeling stronger and more capable.
