Therapists » Marriage & Family Therapist Associate
I am passionate about helping people identify their strengths and explore what is holding them back from finding happiness, purpose, and fulfillment in their lives. I meet clients exactly where they are in their journey and explore their inner world alongside them while providing a non-judgemental, calm, and safe environment to process vulnerable and difficult emotions that may come up along the way. I find value in building rapport with my clients and having a therapeutic relationship based on trust and respect. I am primarily psychodynamic in my approach. This means that I pay a significant amount of attention to exploring how past experiences shape one's current thoughts, feelings and behaviors and aim for deep self awareness and meaningful change. I am trained in EMDR and I also utilize somatic approaches in my work to honor the mind/body connection in therapy. There is healing in feeling heard. I know it can be hard to ask for help, but I am happy you have found the strength within you to seek support.
