My Approach to Helping

I tailor therapy to meet your individual needs and achieve your desired outcome. My approach is to work with ideas from a psycho-dynamic approach, CBT, focusing on healing C-PTSD symptoms through Talk therapy, and integrated body movement. I also take ideas from EFT, especially when working with couples. I genuinely believe that it is the quality of the relationship between therapist and the client that allows for real, lasting changes to occur. My role as the therapist, is to walk alongside, and create a safe empathetic environment to explore feelings, emotions and thought patterns.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I received my masters in counseling in 2016 from Antioch University, Seattle. Since then I have worked with a wide variety of individuals including Severe and persistent mental illness, depression/anxiety and life transitions. I worked with couples providing EFT/ Gottman approach. I specialize in DBT, CBT, Psycho-dynamic and EFT when working with couples.
