I’m here to listen, if you’re ready to talk. Even if you’re not quite ready to talk about everything, I’m here to stand beside you while we get it figured out. My approach is about meeting you where you are, hearing your story, and working together to find tools that are specifically tailored to work for you. Above all, I am here to provide warmth, support, empathy, and sometimes (when it’s needed) a gentle kick in the pants to get you to being the most awesome self you can be.

You can grow and heal, despite what you've been through (think flowers blooming through concrete). You're going to feel so much better once you start digging the rot out and healing. I'm an expert at clearing trauma and anxiety, by rewiring your mind and regulating your nervous system. Not only does trauma get healed and processed, but when hard things come up you they feel easy to navigate and you do so with confidence + ease. I don't believe healing has to be hard or take forever, in fact I believe it can be light + fun. With me, you're gonna work but you're also going to laugh and learn to savor this one wild and precious life.

Life is often full of difficult and complicated experiences that are difficult to overcome, especially without support.

Motivational Interviewing Therapists

How does motivational interviewing work?

Motivational interviewing aims to uncover a person’s internal motivation to change their life. Toward this end, the therapist listens, empathizes, and collaborates with the client based on their perspective; the therapist doesn’t adhere to a predetermined plan for change or impose their viewpoint on the client. Discovering an individual’s most important reasons for change, and guiding them to achieve those changes, can empower people to shift from ambivalence to action.

Is motivational interviewing evidence-based?

Yes, research shows that motivational interviewing can help treat alcohol and substance use — and in different ways such as reducing drinking, reducing resistance, and increasing the likelihood of staying in treatment. Motivational interviewing has also been shown to help people lose weight, adhere to medication regimens, improve diet for those with Type II diabetes, and improve healthy behaviors in children.

How long does motivational interviewing last?

Motivational interviewing is a short-term therapy that can last just one or two sessions. In some cases, motivational interviewing may be used in conjunction with longer-term therapies, but for most people, motivational interviewing is a brief intervention that aims to help patients understand their personal, specific, and internal reasons for changing their life.

What differentiates motivational interviewing from person-centered therapy?

In person-centered therapy, the individual is in the driver’s seat of the treatment process, creating space for them to trust their instincts and arrive at their own solutions. The two approaches are similar because motivational interviewing is also client-centered; however, person-centered therapy is more open-ended while motivational interviewing is somewhat more structured; the goal is to change, and the therapist helps the client specifically discover their internal motivations to modify their behavior.
