Contemplating, beginning, and committing to therapy can be an act of Self Love & Courage

Approach

Therapy can be a way to find out what is real. It can be an opportunity to explore the by-ways of your past, future, and present selves. It can be a chance to seek truth, safety, vulnerability, belonging, and your unknown parts.

When waves of sensations, thoughts, urges, and habitual impulses come crashing over you, it can be so helpful to have a safe, understanding, empathetic, and objective person to turn to. I offer clients a caring perspective, emotional holding, honesty, dependability, and hope.

I seek to meet clients where they are by asking what they need and how I can be of service. I approach each session with this inquiry in mind—it can feel both brand new and deeply comforting.

I utilize mindfulness and somatic check-ins, psychodynamic reflections, relational content, and inquiry into family history and dynamics to support you.
