About My Clients
The focus of my individual clinical work has been with clients experiencing anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, identity crises, childhood trauma, and obsessive-compulsive symptoms, while tackling a plethora of general life issues. I have also worked with couples and families to resolve interpersonal issues.
My Background and Approach
When working with individuals, I move toward finding balance between reducing current symptoms and addressing the underlying issue(s) causing the symptoms. Generally, I implement cognitive-behavioral techniques through a person-centered trauma-focused lens. When working on relationships, my lens shifts to an attachment-focus with some behavior skills. -------My presence is warm, authentic, and empathic. I bring myself into the counseling process as I view all humans, including myself, as flawed and beautifully imperfect. I see my role as a guide toward healing and growth, while also holding the notion that I am simply a “fellow traveler” on the journey of life.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am passionate about helping people in systemically opressed groups like those in LGBTQ+, non-monogamy, and kink communities as well as any others that may find it hard to express parts of themselves. All of you is welcome! -------There is also a part of me that wants you to be the best version of yourself. I have seen the value of this in my own life, and I am enthusiastic about guiding you to go deep and develop the insight about what's most important in your life, which can ultimately lead you to self-actualization.
