Therapist Overview
I work with children, adolescents, and adults in need of support during times of heightened stress, change, transition, or loss. Because life can be complicated, you’ll find that my approach to therapy is not “one size fits all” but is integrative and collaborative, blending a variety of techniques to best meet your needs. My hope is you’ll find me welcoming, nonjudgmental, authentic. Throughout the course of therapy, my goal is to create a caring environment that feels safe to explore and discuss difficult topics, paving the way for new understandings, relationships, and habits. My philosophy rests on a relationship-focused foundation that is respectful and empowering. I often incorporate brain-based, attachment, narrative, and family therapy interventions.
