Welcome.
Whether you are struggling with anxiety or depressed mood, are concerned about relationships, are adjusting to a new stage in life, recovering from traumatic experiences, working through grief and loss, or exploring your sense of self -- therapy can help. Together, we will work to improve your quality of life and your satisfaction in relationships, to develop new awareness and insight, and to manage mental health concerns to allow you to better live a full and fulfilling life.
At the heart of any type of therapy is trust; I aim to create a therapeutic relationship based on compassion, empathy, and acceptance. The idea of therapy can seem intimidating, but my hope is to make the process feel approachable and to build an authentic connection with you. I will provide a safe space for you to share your story and explore your inner world.
My approach is integrative, combining relational, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral techniques. This means we will work together to understand the origin and function of current patterns of behavior, including exploring early relationships and belief systems. I adapt to meet you where you are, so while we may look for connections between the past and the present, we will also work to build coping strategies, to understand the relationships between thoughts-feelings-behaviors-the body, and to help clarify your strengths and values. I am committed to ongoing learning and training and invite your feedback throughout our work in order to provide you the best experience possible.
I look forward to hearing from you to answer any questions, assess our fit, and to schedule a first appointment.
