My professional approach views each client through a biopsychosocial lens. Knowing that each individual is dynamic creates the need for an integrative approach. My approach is client centered and strength based. Integrating, EMDR, IFS, Lifespan Integration, Art Therapy, CBT, and Collaborative Problem Solving. Client centered therapy is focused on the therapeutic relationship and utilizing client’s strengths. From this platform, I adapt theraputically to meet the needs of each client and integrate art therapy directives into counseling sessions to help the client in attaining their goals.

We get thrown for loops all the time, some are small and we bounce back, others are bigger and we may need help to navigate them. Many of the folks I see are at the top of one of these bigger loops; maybe you just received a new chronic illness diagnosis or are in chronic pain that is taking you away from what's important to you, maybe you're sexuality has shifted and you're struggling to make sense of it, maybe you're ready to unpack a trauma that's taking from your life, maybe you want to make a change with substance use that's not working anymore. The challenges we face can seem insurmountable and you don't have to go it alone!

I enjoy supporting people who are experiencing various challenges, including grief and loss, trauma, relationship difficulties, and life transitions. We often feel terrified to face our own emotional pain and get to know the parts of ourselves that are feeling helpless, hopeless, or disempowered. I believe that each of us has everything we need within ourselves to find healing and growth. It is my job to support you to connect to yourself and find that path within you. I utilize various techniques to help you cope with (and feel) difficult emotions, connect to your mind and body, and understand the impact of your past and present.

Many people grow up in dysfunction and therefore they relate in inappropriate ways. Clients that I have helped the most typically relate to these dysfunctional ways: They guess at what normal is. They judge themselves without mercy. They have difficulty relaxing and enjoying life. They have difficulty with intimate relationships. They over-react to changes over which they have no control. They constantly seek approval and affirmation. They feel that they are different from other people. They avoid conflict or aggravate it; rarely do they deal with it. They fear failure, but sabotage their success.

Human minds and bodies are creative and our systems find ways to keep us functioning safely through extraordinary and difficult circumstances. There often comes a time, however, when the tools and skills we have relied on to keep us safe are no longer working and we need to find new ways to move through the world as we build the life we want to live.

Creating change in our minds, our relationships, and our society takes internal work. Without self-care, we can get burned out from feeling anxious about the world, coping with internalized oppression, or struggling with self-esteem. I use a multicultural feminist approach to explore and process those feelings, and bring in neurodivergent friendly skills and tools to help clients learn affirming, practical, and creative ways to cope and adapt to a changing world. Therapy can be an empowering space to support, challenge, and motivate you while you're doing the brave work of learning, growing, and healing.

I provide individual therapy for people who are feeling stuck and need support understanding how to get through a tough time. Many people benefit from an outside perspective for navigating life transitions, coping with stress, or dealing with family conflict and other important relationships. Often people struggle with conflicting needs as they evaluate their lives and relationships. When life feels out of control, I can provide compassionate guidance for gaining self-awareness and building confidence. Individuals can learn healthy communication, boundaries, and effective coping tools. Therapy can bring calm to the chaos.

NOTE: OCTOBER 2024 - I have openings for couples and a waitlist for individuals. As we move through life, we all develop a unique collection of wounds based on our experiences on the individual, relational, systemic, cultural, and historical levels. These wounds can shake our sense of safety and fuel disconnection from ourselves, others, and the world around us. They can dampen our capacity for presence and joy, and erode our sense of meaning and hope. Even in the face of great suffering, I believe every person possesses the inner wisdom, strength, and resilience to heal, grow, and find fulfillment in their lives and relationships.
