I make an effort to work with each person in a unique way, balancing a very customized type of treatment with evidence-based practice. For example, if your hobby or interest is photography, I will find a way to use that as part of your treatment and work with you the way you want and need to be helped.
I use a trauma-informed approach to intake and consent, acknowledging that therapy can be difficult when establishing trust and rapport while sharing sensitive information. Progress typically depends on the goals of the individual and I often assign homework in the form of movies, documentaries, music, and activities that make sense to you and your treatment.
I try to provide a relaxed atmosphere for you to identify, process, and work through issues that are barriers to a peaceful life.
