My Ideal Client

I work with clients who are creative, curious, and committed to developing their innate resilience. I welcome clients who are interested in introducing more creativity into their way of thinking. I often work with clients for whom arts are central to their personal and spiritual identity.

My Approach to Helping

I have a client centered approach to therapy and aim to meet each client where they are at by collaborating to create individualized treatment plans. I know that each client navigates a variety of oppressive systems and needs space to bring their specific perspectives and identities into the therapeutic relationship. I draw upon theoretical frameworks such as CBT, DBT, ACT, mindfulness, and parts work to create custom treatment plans.

More About the People I Treat

To ensure clients receive the level of care best suited to their needs, I work with individuals who are relatively stable and able to engage in weekly outpatient therapy. I am not the best fit for those currently navigating active suicidal thoughts, psychosis, or frequent crises, and I recommend connecting with providers who specialize in crisis stabilization or more intensive levels of care.

Specialties

  • Loss or Grief External link

    I completed a certificate in trauma at Antioch University which included courses on creative approaches to trauma and grief.

  • Anxiety External link

    I have worked with many clients that face anxiety. I acknowledge that the world we live in promotes anxiety inducing behaviors and that we are all working to achieve a greater connection to the present moment. I led a meditation therapy group and include mindfulness in my individual therapy.
