I bring curiosity and respect to each therapeutic relationship. I want to learn about what has and hasn't worked for you in the past and what your goals are, and consider treatment a collaborative, dynamic process. I want to ensure that you feel empowered in the therapy room. To me, this means honoring you as the expert of your own lived experiences and welcoming feedback. I believe that mental health care is political and I aim to validate your experiences living within oppressive systems while also creating space for you to feel free and live a life aligned with your values.

Therapeutic alliance and connection are essential for couples and family therapy to be successful. My strengths lie in joining with couples and families to guide them to hope, reconnection and renewed understanding. I like to jump into the spaces between partners and family members to explore things from mutual vantage points. I'm continually amazed and humbled by people's capacity to grow when given the right support, tools and incentives for positive change in their lives.

My ideal client still chooses to show up regardless of their ambivalence towards their treatment goals. Even if this person is not entirely set on treatment, recovery, whatever it might be, your next steps can decide whether or not that individual returns. If I'm thinking more specifically about my own experience, I think a lot about the individuals I supported who were actively using substances. They could identify the harmful impacts and want recovery but couldn't get through their initial ambivalence. These types of moments and individuals are so important to me.
