I’ve wanted to be a therapist since I was a teenager and I still can’t imagine doing anything else. It is such a great privilege to hear your life stories. I think it takes a lot of bravery to walk into my office and share your inner thoughts and feelings with me, especially if you haven’t experienced a lot of empathic listening in your life. As a fellow frequenter of the couch myself, I know how hard it can be! And also, how deeply meaningful. Through my own journey of healing from trauma and witnessing profound transformations in my clients, I bring more than just clinical tools to the therapeutic process.

My ideal client is experiencing anxiety and depression and has an awareness that they need help and are willing to do "homework" outside of sessions to build the skills they need to "be their own therapist." Their needs are to gain insight into the negative thoughts and core beliefs contributing to their symptoms and to process past traumatic events to gain a more accurate and helpful perspective on the precipitating events and current situation. My ideal client's goals are to decrease their anxiety and depression and be able to experience life in a way that leads to increased self-efficacy and contentment in life.

We are all human beings going through the experience of life together, although in the current age, it seems as though there is a movement of separateness, judgment, and shame. Presently, this trend is causing an epidemic of underlying unhappiness. Ask yourself: Am I having problems with the following?: **Getting up and facing the day? **Dealing with "difficult" people in my life? **Being vulnerable and sharing your feelings? ** Navigating romance and intimacy? **Wondering "Who am I?" and " Why am I here?" **Shutting off negative thinking?** Letting go of the need to be right or what "should" be? **Living in the present moment?**

In my approach, I try and lead my clients to come to their own answers, unearthing solutions and insight that they hold within themselves. My direct approach can often be funny, though empathetic; lighthearted, though deeply emotional. Typically, I find that clients benefit from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, as well as Motivational Interviewing to solve current issues, and can utilize Psychodynamic approaches to delve into more deep rooted issues. In helping clients tell their own story through therapy, I've been able guide clients through finding their own solutions when motivated for change.
