Finding meaningful connection, navigating grief, healing from trauma, or coping with anxiety and depression can feel overwhelming—but you don't have to do it alone. My approach is grounded in creating a supportive, non-judgmental space where you feel safe to share your story and move at a pace that feels right for you. You can heal, grow, and move toward values committed living and relating.
We will work together to explore the goals, values, and relationships that are of central importance to you. Together, we’ll collaborate on a path forward that honors your strengths, integrates personalized insights and interventions, and respects the unique complexity of your life.
Clients have shared that they have appreciated my compassionate, flexible, insightful, and down-to-earth approach. I use process-based therapy approaches to flexibly and efficiently help identify areas where people are feeling stuck and to collaborate in helping others make meaningful changes.
I specialize in working with adolescents and adults who are ready to engage in thoughtful, compassionate work to make sense of life’s challenges and pursue greater clarity, freedom, and purpose.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
I utilize ACT to help clients consider their values and rely on values-committed action to move into balance with their goals.
Solution Focused Brief Treatment
Solution Focused Brief Treatment helps clients tap into their inherent strengths and start from a growth-mindset about their goals, aiding with sidestepping some of the common traps we can find ourselves in when we focus on the negative and what is not working.
Trauma-Focused CBT
Trauma-focused CBT is an evidence-based treatment for children and adolescents in the treatment of trauma to mitigate the impact of these events and empower clients in rewriting their own stories. This treatment includes family/caregiver support to bolster the process and cement growth for the longterm.
EMDR
I utilized EMDR in the treatment of trauma-related clinical needs to help clients that are in need of/interest in more somatic and experiential treatment to mitigate the impact of traumatic experiences.
