About My Clients
I believe each client - big and small - can find balance and wellness by understanding their unique style of life and replacing the strategies that no longer work for them. Although our journey is unique, our struggles are not, and we don't have to shoulder them alone. I work with clients of all ages, races, life stages, and orientations. We can accomplish your goals together.
My Background and Approach
My approach to counseling focuses on developing a strong therapeutic relationship based on authenticity, empathy, unconditional positive regard, and encouragement. I have experience with various treatment modalities such as Trauma Focused-CBT, Child-Centered Play Therapy, Humanistic psychotherapy, Attachment-based therapies like TBRI, mindfulness and somatic work, Sandtray, and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). I tailor my treatment style to your individual needs, and aim to populate your "toolbox" with the strategies, insight, and coping skills needed to weather what life throws at us. I am also always learning about new methods to help my clients -- feel free to ask me what I'm learning next!
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe every person has a unique way of looking at the world, and sometimes we all need a little help finding a common language to connect with others or even our own minds. We all strive for something, and our actions tend to be goal-directed; we tend to make decisions that will get us closest to those goals with the information we have at the time. Although I can provide resources and a new perspective, I believe you are the expert on your own story. Your brain is so powerful and wants to heal! My mission is to help clients find the Wisdom to know themselves and identify their sphere of influence, the Power to change what no longer serves them, and the Courage to live life authentically, with compassion for self and others.
