About My Clients
As individuals, we can struggle with relationships, and in turn, that can cause significant distress. Within relationship distress, many people struggle with power dynamics in their relationships with family, friends, partners, employers, and others, and those struggles can stop people from reaching their full potential. My goal is to help people learn about their authentic selves and examine the role of empathy in their lives to strengthen their relationships.
My Background and Approach
As your therapist, I specialize in navigating relationship dynamics and power dynamics within relationships. Drawing from attachment theory, CBT, REBT, psychodynamic theory, and Gottman method. I recognize that these dynamics are often rooted in early attachment experiences and can significantly influence current interpersonal interactions. I’ve seen how impactful it is when an individual has a profound understanding of how these dynamics impact them —whether with family, friends, partners, employers, or others. I am committed to guiding you toward a deeper understanding of your authentic self and more self-regulated self. I aim to help you uncover and embrace your true self by empowering you to strengthen your connections with others. Through a compassionate and insightful therapeutic process, I strive to equip you with the tools and understanding necessary to transform your relationships and, ultimately, achieve your highest aspirations.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
My personal philosophy aligns closely with my treatment philosophy. Driven by humanistic theory, I view self-actualization as developing authenticity and empathy to contribute meaningfully to the larger community. This belief shapes my approach to therapy, where fostering personal authenticity and empathy are central goals. I hold a strong belief that the personal is political, particularly for sexual minorities, as articulated in feminist and critical social theories, and that empathy is crucial in our current political climate. This belief informs my practice and my commitment to supporting you in cultivating greater understanding and compassion in your life and relationships.
