My Approach
Emotions can serve as sources of information to listen to and turn toward in order to feel most in tune with ourselves and our relationships. Oftentimes others' voices, societal expectations, and life can get in our way of welcoming the full range of our human emotion and our inner knowing. The relationship I strive to create in therapy is a nonjudgmental space to turn inward and truly be with your whole authentic self.
My therapeutic lens is rooted in psychodynamic, relational, and somatic approaches that draw from various modalities depending on each client's unique needs. I recognize that each individual is on their own path toward healing and so I do not come to sessions with a formula or agenda. Together, we can shine light on patterns of behavior and thinking that might be making you feel stuck or may no longer be of use. Processing and uncovering, with gentleness and curiosity, where these patterns come from can often lead to more self-compassion, self-understanding, and ultimately, healing and change.
I offer a warm and insight-focused approach to support individuals and couples along the path of exploration, reflection, and healing. Our work may involve process-oriented and emotionally-focused talk therapy as well as body-oriented mindfulness in order to deepen connection to the self and to others.
