HOW I CAN HELP
My approach starts with respect and collaboration. Our connection is based on warmth, attunement, experience and authenticity. Taking into consideration your past experiences, we focus on your present experience to optimize solutions and self understanding. This results in healthier communication patterns with those you love and a greater ability to tolerate distress. Ultimately, what remains is emotional insight, a greater trust in yourself to navigate the challenges you face and a more honest and positive narrative.
WHAT TO EXPECT
I draw upon a variety of disciplines in my work with adults such as Psychodynamic, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Trauma Focused Therapy (CPT), Attachment Theory, Family Systems and Mindfulness techniques. I specialize in mood disorders such as anxiety and depression, complex PTSD (especially when experienced as a child), acute trauma, parent-child attachment disorders, life transitions, boundaries, and grief/loss.
