Therapy
“We shall not cease from exploration. And the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time.”
– T.S. Eliot
My Approach & Offerings
I practice from a relational, narrative, psychoanalytic and trauma informed lens. My approach to therapy is grounded in connection through relationship, safety through kindness, insight through education and collaboration, and authenticity through courageous speech. My patients describe me as being authentic and kind and that my presence feels safe and welcoming. Read the next session below to get a feel for what a session with me will look like.

What therapy with me looks like
During our time together we will address the challenges you bring to therapy. Together we will focus on understanding and making sense of your struggles and your experience—your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. With a safe and non-judgmental presence, I will engage you authentically—person to person—offering you my insights, reflections, curiosity, teaching, clinical expertise, and my full attention, while allowing your unique story, mind and presence to deeply impact me. Together, we will I will often connect what you bring to therapy each week to themes and conversations we’ve had in past sessions and also to stories from your family of origin and early development. Sometimes our talks will be engaging, energetic and back-and-forth; sometimes I will spend more time listening and feeling into what you are saying—getting a sense of what it’s like to be in your life. We all have hidden parts that we need help to see—I will help you see important parts of yourself that you may not yet be fully aware of. This process of self-discovery through relational connection can lead to profound healing and lasting change.
My approach to therapy can help you grow in your capacity to care for yourself and others; experience relief and hopefulness; enjoy deeper intimacy in relationships; and build confidence in and appreciation for your true self.
Therapeutic work can be challenging, but if you are in a season of life where you are ready to start the journey, I welcome the opportunity to begin our work together.
