My Ideal Client

Respect, compassion and empathy are the cornerstones of my counseling practice. I provide a safe environment where you can explore your experiences and how they have shaped you. You'll learn to understand yourself, your thoughts, feelings and your needs and examine your relationships with others so that you can nurture and deepen those relationships. Most importantly, you'll learn to view yourself through a more compassionate lens, building a calmer inner experience and more caring self-view.

My Approach to Helping

My specialty is relationship-related issues, which most often include your relationships with your partner, your children, as well as your own parents. We'll explore the ways these relationships impact you, expand your awareness of unhealthy patterns of interaction, increase connection, and learn to thrive instead of just survive.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Our life experiences hold the all the extremes; immense joy and profound love as well as overwhelming frustration and emotional struggle. I am incredibly grateful to be able to offer support to individuals as they navigate the huge ups and downs of this complex journey.

Techniques I Use

Specialties

  • Somatic Therapy (Body Centered) External link

    In my work, I may employ components of ​Compassionate-Based Mindfulness, Attachment-Based Therapy, Inner Child Work, and Somatic Therapy. I utilize these approaches in order to help individuals explore the experiences that shaped them, including bringing awareness to the way emotional struggle shows up in the body. Work in these modalities helps individuals foster a new, more compassionate relationship with themselves and others.

  • Family Systems External link

    We will utilize Family Systems approach in order to identify patterns of interactions and work to implement new, more helpful ways of communicating and interacting.

Issues I Treat

Specialties

  • Relationship / Marriage Issues External link

    Though I don’t provide couples therapy, I do provide individuals therapy with a focus on improving relationships, particularly familial relationships. In sessions, you will be provided the opportunity to explore theses relationships, working to build tools and mindsets to help you and your loved ones thrive.

  • Parenting External link

    Supporting parents and caretakers in developing and implementing tried and tested strategies and mindsets that support their child's mental and emotional well-being. This work may also involve deepening your understanding of yourself and your past experiences in order to strengthen your ability to support your child when they are in need.

  • Women's Issues External link

    Women face unique challenges which may include but are not limited to restrictive gender norms as well as inequality on multiple levels both within and outside of their family systems. If interested, women are allowed the space in individual sessions to explore their own unique experiences as women and to discover and build upon their inherent power and value.

  • Anger Management External link

    Helping individuals identify and work to manage feelings of anger through mindfulness tools as well as through working to increase each individual's sense of safety and connection with one another.

  • Adjustment Disorder External link

    Along our journey through life, we often experience a stressor or series of stressors that may be understandably overwhelming. In sessions, individuals unpack these experiences, identify and process the affects they've had and build tools to help them manage both the emotional and logistical consequences of these stressors.
