My Background and Approach
Shakespeare famously wrote “to thine own self be true.”I often wonder about what it means to be true to myself, and I know that I am not alone. In today’s fast paced society, it is easy to get lost in the shuffle. Society frequently dictates what seems or appears to be right or perfect, from the type of job that we have, to the way that we look, who we love and how we love, and the choices that we make on a day to day basis. When what we are told is “right or perfect” does not align with our true selves, we may lose our sense of self as well as a sense of belonging. I believe that healing begins with a deeper understanding and connection with oneself. I work from an eclectic perspective by to tailoring the therapeutic experience based your individual needs. I will collaborate with you on identifying your goals, while proving unconditional positive regard, and will support you on your journey towards understanding and connecting with your needs, as well providing for them.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I practice using a trauma informed foundation and utilize a wide variety of theoretical approaches, including Gestalt Therapy, CBT, Mindfulness, Abstinence and Harm Reduction, as well as Health at Every Size (HAES) and Intuitive Eating frameworks when working towards fostering a healthy relationship with your body. I strive to create and foster a safe, inclusive and non-judgemental environment , where you can freely accept yourself as you are, feel supported, accepted and understood.
