We exist in relation, in our interaction with the world and the people around us. In the therapy space, evidence shows that it is the therapeutic relationship that serves as the canvas for growth and healing. The privilege I have as a therapist is to hold a safe space for clients, allowing them to feel safe and seen as they explore their rawest vulnerabilities, acknowledge and heal their deepest wounds, and discover strengths they didn't know they had.
As a relational, humanistic, and psychodynamic therapist, therapy with me tends to focus on understanding and managing relationships with yourself, others, and the world. I understand these relationships as both shaped by early experiences, and also as ever-changing by both environmental factors and one's choices.
I have experience working with clients of all ages. I've helped clients work through obstacles inherent to living with ADHD, ruminative and relational OCD patterns, Depression and Anxiety, Borderline and Bipolar symptoms, and early and complex trauma. I enjoy working with young adults and adolescents as they navigate through the waters of identity development, deciding who they want to be and how they want to move through the world. I also work with couples to better understand the dynamics contributing to conflict and the barriers to healing and trust.
