Who am I?
I am a seasoned therapist who is warm and gentle, yet direct and open. I believe it can be deeply healing and transformative to be witnessed in our emotional vulnerability, and it is my practice to tune-in to what your mind, body, and spirit has to say.
My approach is eclectic, but primarily relational and psychodynamic. I try to cultivate a space where we can both be ourselves and where you can allow your narrative to unfold however it needs to. My main focus is on relational dynamics in the present and the past, which may be informed by dysfunctional familial patterns, generational trauma, or other traumas held within the body. I utilize mindfulness techniques, somatic skills, CBT & DBT as needed.
I have experience working with a diverse array of people and diagnoses and prefer not to categorize people this way, but rather see much of life on a spectrum. Some issues that I can help you with most effectively include; depression, anxiety, phase of life transitions, grief & loss, relationship issues, and issues of identity & culture.
