I believe that healing requires deepening insight of ourselves and the experiences that impact our everyday lives and relationships. These experiences can result in anxiety, emotional numbness, or relationship challenges. Often clients have also experienced dysfunctional family dynamics and childhood traumas. As a result of these difficult experiences, we develop unhealthy coping strategies and protective behaviors. These behaviors may or may not be helping you understand your experiences and cope in a healthy manner. My passion is in creating a collaborative therapeutic relationship in which you feel safe and understood. The ultimate goal is to help you heal and connect with your authentic self. We will work together to understand how past experiences are impacting you today. Together we can identify develop more helpful coping strategies. I understand that each person I work with is unique, which is why I utilize a collaborative, integrative, strengths-based approach to therapy. I draw upon aspects of various modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Art Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Family Systems Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to best support you. Please reach out if you believe that we could be a good fit. I am happy to schedule a free phone call to discuss your goals in therapy.
