My approach is all about cultivating a strong and trusting therapeutic relationship between my patients and me. I bring to therapy my years of experience working in special education, developmental therapy, restorative justice, and community mental health as well as my work as a financial counselor. My decade of studying and practicing Ayurveda deeply influences my understanding of individual constitutions and my approach to holistic healing. I work with individuals and couples from ages 16 years and up. I work primarily from a psychodynamic orientation and may draw from humanistic-existential and cognitive-behavioral therapies (among others). I believe that each of these becomes more effective when I really get what’s going on for you and you feel understood. We will discuss at the start of therapy which kind of approach works best for you. I work well with individuals who are struggling with a range of challenges including relationship and money stress, anxiety, depression, and the cultivation of insight. I welcome all genders and ethnicities.
