My Approach

I work with deepening awareness of yourself and of your experience in the world. Our work will help you become more in touch with your intentions and hopes, and we will figure out what tools may be helpful in overcoming the challenges you are facing. In working with deepening awareness, we can expand our usual thoughts or assumptions (often negative ones) by bringing new ideas and options into the picture.

I focus on facilitating growth with my clients, coming from a place of empathy, compassion, and curiosity of your experience.

 

I am certified in EMDR and trained in EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy). I frequently use relational gestalt and cognitive behavioral therapy in my therapeutic approach. Specific areas I work with include depression, anxiety, trauma, self-esteem and relationship issues including couples counseling.

I also specialize in working with those who are going through a cancer diagnosis. 

As a cancer survivor, I have a unique understanding of the experience, in particular what it's like to deal with this type of illness at a young age. This helps me empathize with my clients in a very special way.
