I offer sessions that are client focused, non-judgemental and curious. In our sessions, we will co-create a space where you can explore your struggles as well as your successes with compassion, creativity and humor. I believe that you are the expert on your own experiences, and I will approach our sessions with humility, fostering an environment where you can feel both safe and challenged to grow. I believe in a relational approach that is trauma-informed and centers consent and individual autonomy in the healing process, allowing you to show up exactly as you are and feel seen and heard in our sessions together. I approach my sessions from the viewpoint that our work should always be focused on you, your needs and how we can work together in a collaborative way. I integrate a range of modalities in treatment, focusing on a relational framework and drawing from elements of psychodynamic theory, CBT, and mindfulness. I ground my work in an anti-oppressive and queer-affirming approach that acknowledges the many experiences we bring on both an individual and social level. I use a strengths-based approach so we can work together to identify how to use your resources and resiliencies to process your emotions and create positive change in your life.
