I'm excited to get to know you!

 

I am genuinely curious about your whole self and I want to understand the depth and breadth of your emotions and your story. I'll listen deeply and help you find new takes and new ownership over the unique tales of your life, in which you are both a character and the narrator!

​

I'll gently challenge you to move forward and out of being "stuck" or unhelpful holding patterns. My therapy style is informed by evidence based practices and grounded experience, which I balance with irreverence and humor.

 

Through my training and experience have learned to both hold and help transform your emotions and your story, no matter how painful or traumatic.

​

Your whole self is welcome here-- I invite you to be real with me!

​

I tailor my approach to each individual, drawing from psychodynamic, cognitive-behavioral, art therapy, and dialectical behavioral therapy techniques.
