I work with teens and adults treating anxiety, depression, complex trauma, and relationship/attachment concerns. I incorporate principles and tools from mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, relational therapy, and more.
Psychotherapy is an opportunity to "re-wire" your brain and change your life. My job is to support you on the journey, not unlike a personal trainer guiding you to build physical strength and endurance. The growth process in your brain is even similar to building muscle. We will identify what needs to change, come up with a plan to create a challenge (just as you would with exercise), and repeat, repeat, repeat. The hard work pays off and eventually your new patterns become automatic.
I strive to establish a safe, non-judgmental environment so that our time together can be supportive and as productive as you would like it to be. I am proactive but always client-centered, so it's really all about you. Please feel free to reach out with any questions about my practice.
