I use Internal Family Systems (IFS) as the primary approach in my work. IFS gives us a way to explore the different parts of your experience, as well as your internal and external responses. We can become curious about what is happening and what each part may need.
 

I also draw from relational, attachment, trauma-informed, CBT, and somatic approaches. Metaphor and imagery are often part of our work. Meditation and mindfulness are available as optional tools when they are useful to you.

Therapy is collaborative. I won't tell you who you should be or what you should choose. Instead, we'll explore what matters to you and what is happening within you and in your relationships.
 

Sometimes that means learning to work differently.  It may mean making a difficult choice, changing a priority, working through grief, learning a new way of responding, or discovering something you hadn't known was possible.

What You Can Expect
​

Warm
I want therapy to feel like a place where you can bring your whole experience without having to perform, explain everything perfectly, or already know what you need.
 

Participatory
Therapy is something we do together. Your experience, values, questions, and perspective matter. I won't tell you who you should be or what you should choose.

Creative
I often use metaphor, imagery, and other ways of exploring an experience beyond simply talking about it. We can find what works for you.

You don't have to know exactly what needs to change before you begin. I can't do the work for you, but you don't have to figure it out alone
