New to Grow
I offer a warm, open, and supportive space where you can explore life's challenges with honesty and safety. Utilizing a thoughtful and engaging style, I aim to make the therapeutic process feel approachable and deeply meaningful. My goal is to serve as a guide and a sounding board, assisting you to unlock your own innate wisdom and arriving at meaningful, personal insights.
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
I hope to create a safe and welcoming space for everyone that comes through my virtual door. If there was a sign on my 'door', I would want it to say: You are safe now, you can rest here. We will spend time getting to know your primary concerns and discuss the ways we could work together toward addressing those concerns.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
I utilize an integrative approach that centers on your experience, fostering a truly collaborative and non-judgmental therapeutic relationship. This process is informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS), providing a framework for understanding and bringing harmony to the different aspects of your internal landscape. By also incorporating narrative and psychodynamic therapy, we will work together to challenge old, limiting stories and write new ones that reflect your inherent strengths and desired future. I am also a certified spiritual director. If you area someone who is open and interested in spirituality being a part of their healing process, this can add another layer of depth and meaning to our work together.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I am hoping to serve people that feel like they want more from life. You may not be in an acute crisis, but you feel a persistent sense of being "stuck." You are weary from the friction of daily life—balancing career stress, relationship dynamics, and the mental load of modern living. If you want more out of life, want to move into being the best version of yourself and are hoping for more internal and external freedom, I hope we can work together toward that end.
Integrative
I use a combination of psychodynamic, supportive, faith-integrated and internal family systems approaches to gear treatment toward the needs of each individual.
