My approach combines Internal Family Systems, Motivational Interviewing, and Acceptance Commitment Therapy to help people who are stuck in their relationships, identities, sex lives, religious beliefs, and behavioral patterns, grow into new, sustainable ways of being.
What makes the biggest impact on your experience of therapy? Connecting with a good-fit therapist. I work with folks who have invested in therapy for years, sometimes decades, but who haven't experienced significant change in their relationships, their ways of operating, their stress levels, etc... So if you're motivated to gain insight into your stuck places, experiment with new ways of thinking, acting, and relating, and experience real growth, let's connect.
