I believe the relationship between the client and therapist is a key element to taking steps towards growth. I aim to create a safe and warm space for clients to feel open in collaboratively exploring their vulnerability and to be empowered in their strengths.
I use an integrative approach of relational and attachment theories to help the client increase their ever-evolving sense of self. Additionally, I pull upon DBT and ACT skills to aid clients in feeling more secure in situations, relationships, and environments.
While I specialize in eating disorders and trauma, I treat various situations and disorders, including depression, anxiety, relationship, and personality concerns.
I seek to understand what happened to my clients in context of their histories and identities, not what is wrong with them. I use an affirmative, trauma-informed style to encourage acceptance of self, while challenging folks to grow. Choosing a therapist can be difficult and finding a good fit is important. I hope we can make a great team.
