Therapy Approach
I provide a laid-back, non-judgmental space for my clients. I take a collaborative approach to therapy that incorporates individuality and the wisdom clients have about themselves, along with evidence-based approaches. I view my role as walking alongside you in your therapy journey to provide support in setting and accomplishing goals that are aligned with your values. I hope to assist clients to feel more fulfilled in life through our work together. I support clients’ autonomy. I won’t tell you what to do - rather we can work together on building insight into barriers preventing you from living the life you want, and then gradually taking steps in the direction of your goals.
Evidence-based therapies I draw from:
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP)
Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)
Prolonged Exposure (PE)
Areas of Specialization
Anxiety
I support clients with a variety of anxiety symptoms including generalized anxiety, social anxiety, panic, and phobias.
Trauma-related concerns
I assist clients in adjusting to large changes in their lives, treating PTSD, and addressing dissociation.
Obsessive-Compulsive and Related Disorders
I’ve received specialized training in treating OCD as well as body-focused repetitive behaviors such as hair pulling and skin picking.
LGBTQ+ Topics
I enjoy working with clients wishing to explore gender identity and sexual orientation. I provide an affirming space to discuss the impact of marginalized identities.
