My Approach to Therapy

My approach to therapy is grounded in the therapeutic relationship, purposeful empathy, evidence-based practices, and a posture of curiosity and non-judgment.

In sessions, you can expect me to be relationally responsive to you and your interests, needs, strengths, and goals for growth through trauma-informed approaches. I love to integrate creativity into our work, as well.

The therapeutic environment is ours to co-create; you are the expert of you and I feel honored to be invited to come alongside individuals as they bravely step into healing and greater wellness. Together, we will acknowledge the both/ands of your life; that you can be feeling angry, depressed, anxious, AND also joyful, too.

Therapy is hard and rich work; with that in mind, I want to do everything I can to ensure you feel comfortable, supported, and empowered.
