Everyone has a sense of personal identify. How do you think about yourself? What is important to you? Identities are often imposed or at the very least encouraged by environmental or cultural forces. As a child, were you routinely told, "You can do it!,” or were you more often told; “You can’t do anything right?” The things we hear as children are usually the very things that create our sense of self. Early in life, sense of self is associated with security, protection, and acceptance. If our identity is strongly developed in the early years of life, this helps to protect us against the challenges in life.

If you have been deeply affected by the results of the 2024 election, I encourage you to visit my webpage, where I have included some words of encouragement in this trying time. Therapy is a deeply rewarding experience. It is also a deeply personal and often challenging journey that involves being vulnerable. While challenging at times, the potential rewards from engaging in therapy make the choice to engage worthwhile. I have come to specialize in working with people around trauma, identity development, self-esteem, anxiety, boundaries, mindfulness, and negative thinking. Visit my webpage to learn more about who I am in detail!

I am particularly interested in clients that are open to cultivating the garden of their life. Our life can represent a garden; in any garden there are beautiful flowers and unfortunately there are thorns and thistles. My client must be willing to smell the aroma of the flowers as we travel through the thorns and thistles of the garden life also.

While some of the issues leading us to start psychotherapy might be relieved relatively quickly, I have found that many issues are more complex and sometimes require time and the right attention to effectively work through. I believe the best work ahead of us isn't to alleviate our negative symptoms, but to help create real, lasting change; change that helps bring us closer to what we want for ourselves. I strive to create the connection, attunement, and sense of care needed for us to do this work together.

I believe in order for us to heal, find happiness, and grow in our mental fortitude we must treat the mind and the soul. To better understand our journey/our narrative, we must understand our childhood and our inherited familial trauma. I believe it is critical for a client to feel comfortable within sessions for this is the key to diving deeply into our past. I am not here to pass judgement on your story but to provide a safe place to tell it. I am an ally to everyone and open to all kinds of histories and lifestyles. Shame for our choices and our stories creates barriers towards healing from within.

Attachment-based Therapists
Is attachment-based therapy the same as attachment therapy?
Attachment-based therapy may be confused with what is called “attachment therapy” (sometimes called “holding therapy”), a discredited and dangerous approach to treating children with attachment disorders, autism, or other mental health concerns. Attachment therapy—not attachment-based therapy—may involve restraining a child, forcing eye contact, and other coercive or abusive techniques. None of these practices are used in attachment-based therapy and the two modalities are in no way related.
What should I expect from attachment-based therapy?
Attachment-based therapy is based on attachment theory, which posits that children’s early relationships with their caregivers strongly influence their ability to navigate the world later in life. Thus, adults who seek attachment-based therapy should expect to deeply explore their childhood, identifying the dynamics or experiences that disrupted their attachment and the steps necessary to overcome challenges that arose as a result. Parents and children should expect to explore the possible factors that disrupted the parent-child relationship and work toward restoring trust and connection.
How long does attachment-based therapy last?
Certain forms of attachment-based therapy, especially those designed for parents and children, last for a set number of sessions; for example, Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up, a specific attachment-based approach for young children who have undergone early adversity, unfolds over 10 one-hour sessions. When attachment-based therapy is practiced on adults or combined with other modalities, it may not last a specific length of time; clients may wish to ask prospective therapists how long they expect treatment to take.
Does attachment-based therapy work?
Most of the research on attachment-based therapy focuses on children and adolescents. Some of this research shows a positive effect, especially for attachment-based family therapy (ABFT). Other studies, however, have found that attachment-based therapy is no more effective than other approaches to childhood depression, anxiety, or suicidality. Less is known about the therapy’s efficacy on adult populations.
