Hello and Welcome! Needless to say, it's not easy to find a therapist. I hope the information below gives you a good idea of what I offer and whether we might be a good fit. I specialize in working with adults/adolescents who are going through major life transitions and/or struggling in their relationships with their intimate partner(s)/others. I primarily draw from narrative and attachment-focused therapy to help my clients improve/develop secure and fulfilling relationships, as well as feel integrated and aligned with their values. I will hold a containing, safe, and generative space so that you can engage in explorative work, and process the hurts, roadblocks, and setbacks life has thrown at you. Whether you have had therapy before, or whether it is your first time considering it, feel free to reach out to me with any questions you might have. Take good care, Vincent (He/They)
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
In our sessions, I will foster and hold a collaborative and generative space so you can acquire/strengthen the skills and understanding you want to achieve lasting healing and empowerment.
What treatment methods and tools do you utilize?
I draw from a wide range of theoretical frameworks and will ultimately meet you where you are at but my default is to be psychodynamically inclined. It tends to be less directive than some other modalities. If a more structured approach like CBT is something that you are interested in or that has worked for you, and you rather focus on concrete steps you can take right now, I will happily tailor my approach to what you need.
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
I am particularly interested in positive psychology, which focuses on understanding the characteristics and habits shared by people who feel a sense of happiness, accomplishment, belongingness, and secure attachment. In my work with you, I'll be particularly attentive to what has worked or is working in your life and how you can build on the strengths and support you already have.
