Therapy is a collaborative process.
I believe therapy should feel like a deep and rich conversation. I am not the type of therapist who only sits and listens.
I support my clients, most of whom self-identify as women, in: managing anxiety, perfectionism, and people-pleasing; evaluating unwanted habits and ways of coping; building communication skills and setting boundaries to help relationships thrive; making big life decisions around priorities and desires for the future; and navigating difficult and painful transitions and events.
We'll work together to understand more clearly what’s going on for you, through both a focus on the present, navigating tough moments in your life, and an eye on the past and how deeper patterns and early relationships and experiences can play into current difficulties.
Over the course of our sessions, we’ll have an open dialogue about your emotions, thoughts, and relationship dynamics. To support our work, I’ll call on mindfulness, self-compassion, attachment theory, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS) parts work, and wellness coaching, while bearing in mind cultural and societal context.
As your self-awareness increases, so will your ability to make different choices that move you closer to equilibrium.
