My Approach to Helping

My approach is very relational as I believe that long-term growth and healing happens within trusting, healthy relationships. My relational lens also means that I see the therapeutic relationship as the catalyst for shifting inner narratives and working towards lasting change. That said, we live in a world where varying systems impact our lives every day depending on our identities and working within a structure that we can't quickly change can be challenging. That is why I believe it is important to acknowledge these systems and how my client's daily lives are impacted by them. It can be difficult to find spaces where we feel safe enough to be vulnerable and examine all our parts with compassion which is the kind of space I work to cultivate. I use an attachment and systems lens, elements of Internal Family Systems, skill development, and interpersonal awareness. If looking for Mentalization-Based Narrative Exposure Therapy (MBNET) for trauma processing, reach out to discuss options.

My Values as a Therapist

I’m guided by curiosity and a desire to help people on their journey through healing and insight. In acknowledging my varying identities, I work to examine and discuss how my privileged identities impact and intersect with my client's identities and how we navigate cultivating trust. One of my goals is to help clients feel seen and understood which means staying open to their experiences within our larger social systems and structural inequities. I deeply value the relationships I build with my clients, knowing that an honest, reflective therapeutic connection can foster lasting growth and change.
