No matter what is happening in your life and what you are going through, you can expect me to hold a dedicated relational container to meet you with compassion, empathy, warmth, and curiosity. I believe these qualities of mine are what make a therapeutic relationship successful to accompany your healing and transformative journey. I don’t take your trust lightly, and I believe trust and safety are earned in an on-going process. View 4 Photos My therapeutic approach is an eclectic integration of relational, psychodynamic, humanistic, and somatic methods, drawing from an array of theories and modalities including Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic Experiencing (SE), Polyvagal theory, Focusing-Oriented Psychotherapy and Depth psychology. As a highly sensitive person myself, I understand the importance of space holding for you to process and honor the most intimate and vulnerable places inside, perhaps areas that need both protection and yearn to be seen. I am here for you in that way. At times, I may laugh and shed tears together with you. I believe therapy is a collaborative process.
