LMFT, 9 years of experience
I am doctoral-trained therapist who integrates evidenced based clinical practices in ways that can meet your unique needs/challenges. For instance, I will utilize your strengths, resources and culture in order to explore problems from multiple vantage points. And, I will develop a treatment plan that incorporates co-existing issues. Whether you are experiencing family problems, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges or another issue, I will facilitate conversations where solutions to the problem become more accessible and visible: I believe my clients have the capacity and agency to take actions that are right for them. These are times of uncertainty and challenges for many people. Each person, relationship and family is impacted differently. I am trained to work with individuals, couples, children and families; hence, I am prepared to offer you or your family comprehensive and holistic recommendations. This can be that first step toward an experience where the destination will be determined by each of you. If this speaks to you, I invite you to contact me and schedule a consultation.
We will have an open and honest conversation that provides a safe space for discussing problems with care and without judgment.
I use a strength based integrative approach: Solution Focused Brief Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Collaborative Therapy and Family Systems. I also utilize evidence based practices informed by DBT and Mindfulness. I consider developmental trauma through a Neuro Affective Relational Model (NARM) lens. I may use EMDR to address Trauma or Severe Distressing life events/experiences. I integrate evidence based parenting practices as needed (Triple P). I also use psychoeducation-reflective practices or research informed ideas as needed.
I believe my biggest strength is my openness and collaborative spirit. I do the best I can to provide a safe space/therapeutic context. I also invite playfulness and creativity throughout the therapeutic process.
