As a therapist, I've come to deeply appreciate the inherent messiness and imperfection of being human. We all carry quirks, shadows, inconsistencies - and that's okay. My role is not to judge or fix, but to create a safe space where you can explore all of who you are with acceptance and compassion. I aim to provide a balance of practicality and profundity in my work. On a practical level, I'll share tools, frameworks, and insights from evidence-based modalities to help shine light on core issues. But I also believe therapy should allow for transcendence - those profound "aha" moments where you glimpse a deeper truth about yourself.
My therapeutic approach honors the full range of your humanity - your thoughts, emotions, behaviors, desires, and contradictions. I'll gently challenge you to question self-limiting beliefs, while celebrating your resilience. We'll look at old patterns with fresh eyes and push boundaries, not for the sake of being edgy, but to expand your self-awareness.
I strive to create an authentic working alliance based on trust, honesty (sometimes hard truths!), and moments of welcomed humor. I'm invested in your growth, but you're ultimately the leader - I'm simply the experienced companion supporting your unfolding. If you're seeking a therapist who can hold space for all of you I'd be honored to connect.
