My Approach to Helping

My approach is collaborative and strengths-based. My goal is to help you navigate life's challenges. My theoretical background is in mindfulness based cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy. I also use elements of motivation interviewing and brief solution focused work. I work through the lens of attachment theory and with a trauma informed approach because what we know from current research on neuroscience is that we heal through relationships.
