therapy offerings
If you’re searching for a therapist, it’s likely a time of frustration and confusion. Finding a new therapist can be so daunting. The good news is you are not in this alone!
I hope the information below helps you make a confident decision about reaching out.
approach to therapy
I feel privileged to have the chance to support you in your goals! While I tailor my approach to each client based on their unique needs, three key elements rise to the top again and again.
As human beings we feel better and cope better when we can:
Connect with our bodies
Feel our emotions
Accept ourselves without judgment
While no one lives like this all the time, learning how to be present with your own experience even sometimes makes a huge difference!
In a world that gives us so many reasons to dissociate and check out, we all deserve a space where we can safely check back in.
clients i see
The work I do best centers on trauma, stress, self-compassion, communication struggles, and perfectionism. I use attachment research, an understanding of family systems, the therapeutic relationship, and mindfulness to help empower clients make informed, connected decisions that align with their values. I also identify as an HSP (Highly Sensitive Person) and find work with other HSPs incredibly rewarding!
You may want to work with me if you seek to increase self-acceptance, to better understand and deal with overwhelming feelings, and to communicate openly and directly — even when it’s really tough. When you learn to manage difficult emotions and strained relationships, things seem to fall into place much easier. This frees you up to focus on living your best life possible.
modalities i use
As your therapist I promise to offer a non-judgmental space where you decide the most important focus. From there, we’ll work together to find the best way to meet your individual needs.
In general, I use a client-centered approach, believing clients are experts on their lives and show up to therapy with so many strengths. I support these existing strengths to help you feel empowered to make the changes you seek.
I offer the following modalities which inform my work with clients:
Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT) for PTSD
Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT)
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) Skills
Unified Protocol of CBT (UP)
Mindfulness & Self-Compassion based Therapy
