I work with adults 20+, providing individual therapy focused on healing related to anxiety, trauma, relationships (with others or with yourself), and grief/loss. I aim to provide and create a safe environment first and foremost, going at your pace and allowing you to feel ready to work toward getting what you need out of our sessions together. You know you best, my job is to help guide you to where you feel like life is more manageable for you specifically, no “shoulds” involved.
Professionally, my work looks like a mixture of official modalities such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Somatic-based therapy, Internal Family Systems (or Parts work), Person-Centered Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. What this means in reality is that I will use my knowledge and training to find an approach that you feel good about and works for you, without a rigid one-size-fits-all approach.
In addition to this, you also have the option of including Odin in our work together; Odin is a professional therapy dog trained in supporting individuals with trauma, anxiety, and related struggles through deep pressure therapy, interrupting anxious behaviors, or simply being a cuddly guy to sit with and pet.
