I don’t believe therapy is one-size-fits-all. Every person comes into therapy with different experiences, relationships, environments, strengths, and needs, so I believe therapy should be tailored to the individual. My approach is relational, holistic, and trauma-informed, and I adapt the therapeutic modalities I use based on what each person needs. I also believe there is something unique about having an hour that is completely yours. It’s a space where you can talk openly, be emotionally vulnerable, and explore things you may not feel comfortable sharing anywhere else, without worrying about being judged or having to take care of the other person in the room. I’m fully present and attuned to you throughout that process, paying attention not only to what you’re saying, but also to what may be happening beneath the surface.
I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 17 years of experience helping individuals heal from anxiety, trauma, PTSD, burnout, and life transitions.
I look at the whole person, including the connection between mind, body, and spirit, as well as the environment, relationships, experiences, and circumstances that shape your life. I also recognize that past experiences can influence how we understand ourselves, relate to others, and respond to what is happening in the present. Therapy can help us identify what is happening, build awareness of patterns and responses, and develop insight into where they may come from and what continues to reinforce them. From there, we can find approaches and practical skills that fit you and practice new ways of responding in everyday life. I don’t see therapy as performative. You don’t have to show up with the right words or a polished version of yourself. This is a place to authentically understand yourself, and become aware of what influences the way you think, feel, and respond. As that understanding grows, so does your ability to make changes that come from you, rather than reacting to what is happening around you.
First session
During our first session, my focus is on building a genuine connection and creating a supportive space where you feel safe and understood. I’ll meet you exactly where you are and listen to your current concerns while gaining insight into your goals. Together, we’ll create personalized objectives and develop a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs. This session is about collaboration, trust, and setting the foundation for meaningful growth, addressing both your present challenges and long-term aspirations.
Strengths
One of the greatest strengths I bring to therapy is attunement. I pay close attention to what you share, but also to patterns that develop over time, changes in how you respond, and connections that may not always be obvious at first. I believe that feeling genuinely heard and understood matters, and I work to create a therapeutic relationship where you don’t have to perform, take care of me, or become a particular version of yourself. I’m also highly adaptable in how I work. I don’t believe one therapeutic modality can meet every person’s needs or even every need within the same person. I draw from different approaches and adjust our work based on what you’re experiencing, where you are in the therapeutic process, and what seems most useful at that time. I bring warmth and compassion into the room, but I’m also willing to be direct. Sometimes growth involves recognizing a pattern, looking at something from another perspective, or asking a question that may be uncomfortable but important. My role isn’t to tell you how to live your life or make decisions for you. Instead, I want to help you understand what may be influencing your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and choices so that you can decide what you want to do with that understanding. I also value continuity. What you shared months ago can matter to what is happening today. I look at the larger picture rather than treating each session as an isolated conversation. Ultimately, I want therapy to feel deeply human, collaborative, and individualized, with enough safety to be vulnerable and enough honesty to create meaningful change.
Ideal clients
I find joy in collaborating with individuals who are deeply motivated to create meaningful change in their lives. I’m passionate about supporting clients who are committed to making lasting transformations that foster healing and help them embrace their innate strengths. My clients are ready to adopt new perspectives, shift their thought patterns, and step into their full potential with confidence and resilience.
Treatment methods
Eclectic
I use evidence-based treatment techniques through an eclectic approach that prioritizes each client’s trauma history and overall well-being. I draw from trauma-informed care, person centered, cognitive behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, attachment-based therapy, and motivational interviewing, integrating unconditional positive regard throughout. By blending these modalities, I customize treatment to meet each client’s unique needs, goals, and preferences, fostering meaningful growth and healing.
