Therapist Overview
I believe that human health must include attending to our psychological and emotional selves. Just as we exercise our bodies, we can exercise our minds – what might we benefit from exploring about what and how and why we “do what we do?” I seek to be a partner to people seeking: Relief from emotional distress; understanding of how the past affects functioning in the present; an opportunity to experience being seen in wholeness; to develop skills and strategies to manage the impact of mental illness; a path to greater self-acceptance and compassion; healthier, more fulfilling relationships. Equipped with therapeutic “tools” from developmental, cognitive-behavioral, ACT, and relational modalities, I work with individuals to navigate their therapy experience to match their goals. I have extensive experience addressing mood disorders, anxiety, eating disorders and body image issues, relational concerns, grief, and substance abuse among others. I believe that change most often starts with self-compassion; accepting ourselves in the here-and-now while also seeking change and growth that will ease our pain, improve our relationships, and help guide us in living lives that feel meaningful and fulfilling. I would be happy to have a conversation to see if we might be a good fit.
