Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
I aim to provide an empathic, relaxed, and secure therapeutic space where you feel safe to freely explore your inner world and take risks in the outside world. One may have relationship difficulties, be depressed or anxious, experience trauma, or just feel incomplete and want to expand their self-development. Some people's everyday coping strategies stop working as well as they once did. Others may find themselves repeating distressing patterns in their lives or feeling something's wrong, unable to verbalize or comprehend their pain. We will work together to make sense of your experience through insight and emotional understanding. I have a background working with adults and adolescents in a clinical setting and as a school social worker. My approach is mainly through a psychodynamic lens with practical considerations, where we can get curious about conscious and unconscious factors in your situation and figure out solutions to your problems in the here and now. Choosing a therapist can seem daunting and feel like a significant decision. It would be great to speak with you to see if I can help in any way and if it's a suitable fit.
