Great to meet you!

I want to work with you if you are between the ages of 25 and 55 and struggle with anxious attachement, people pleasing, setting boundaries, feeling triggered, anger, anxiety, depression, co-deprendance, parenting issues, and ADD/ ADHD. These symptoms and attacheement style are often related to each other and often related to similar childhood experiences of inconsitancy with caregivers or abusive/engelctful caregivers.

My approach to therapy

My counseling style is non-judgmental, direct and empowering in my counseling style. I have been described as supportive, caring, and compassionate, with a sense of humor. Together we will sort through the things that are difficult right now, and offer you a safe place to be open and honest without fear of judgment.

I use techniques specific to healing the lasting effects of traumatic experiences: EMDR, Inner Child Healing. CBT, and Solution Focused.

What you can expect from me

In our first session together, I will ask you to share with you what prompted you to seek out therapy in the first place, and what goals you have for our time together. I will share feedback and talk with you about how we can work together to meet your goals both in session as well as what you can do to support your goals between sessions. We will review confidentiality expectations, cost / payment/ insurance, scheduling/ canceling appointments and other housekeeping type information.
