About Me
Through my education and career in psychotherapy, my work has required that I have a wide range of training and expertise in many areas of mental health, as well as in how people interact with each other. My work with a client is to help bring greater understanding and increase resilience to enhance their enjoyment of the world.
We all go through difficulties in our lives, ranging from frustrating, distressing, to traumatic. Mental Health struggles can complicate our interaction with the world, causing problems in many parts of life, including socially, with family, in employment or legally. Getting some advice, coping techniques or in depth treatment can be helpful to provide relief to yourself and improve interactions with those around you.
Psychotherapy can be an anxiety provoking thing to start; but, like many difficult things, completing it can be very rewarding. I respect the courage it takes to start therapy, and I work to truly understand the uniqueness of everyone I see.

Therapeutic Approach
My therapeutic approach is integrative, drawing from a variety of evidence-based modalities to best serve your individual needs. These include:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT focuses on identifying and changing negative thought patterns and behaviors to improve emotional well-being.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): DBT teaches skills for managing intense emotions, improving relationships, and increasing mindfulness.
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR): EMDR uses bilateral stimulation to process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional impact.
- Internal Family Systems (IFS): IFS views the mind as comprised of various “parts” and aims to foster self-compassion and harmony among them.
- Existential Therapy: Existential therapy explores meaning, purpose, freedom, and responsibility to help individuals navigate life’s inherent challenges.
- Attachment Therapy: Attachment therapy focuses on understanding and repairing patterns of relating based on early bonding experiences.
- Couples Therapy (Gottman Style): Gottman therapy uses research-based interventions to strengthen communication, manage conflict, and enhance intimacy in relationships.
- Hypnotherapy: Hypnotherapy utilizes a relaxed, focused state to access the subconscious mind and facilitate therapeutic change.
I believe in creating a collaborative and empowering therapeutic relationship where you feel safe to explore your challenges, develop insights, and work towards your goals.
