About My Clients
Feeling anxious and stressed by life and and what the world is right now? Unhappy about how your life feels and wanting to live in a more authentic manner? By better understanding ourselves and bringing our innate human curiosity into therapy you can create a life that works for you.
My Background and Approach
My ultimate goal for therapy is for people to leave with a better understanding of themselves and more belief in who they are on the inside. As well as helping people translate that into improving their external life, relationships, and creating the life they want. Internal Family Systems (IFS) provides the foundation of how I view the world and therapy, but pull from various different theories and techniques. Each person is different and interacts with the world in a different way, therapy shouldn't be one-size fits all. Previously I worked in community mental health for several years, so I have experience working with a wide range of problems and diagnoses.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am a member of the LGBTQIA+ community and challenging historical and societal norms are important to me. In a previous career I worked in social justice activism which informs my understanding of the systemic challenges that people in our society face. We humans are innately empathetic and curious and many cultural norms, the gender binary for example, work to shut down our innate humanity. Challenging those systems can help us build community and find our people.
