My Approach to Helping

My approach, drawing from depth psychology and attachment theory, centers around first creating a safe and compassionate space for clients to consider their inner world and uncover unconscious patterns and beliefs. I believe therapy (at its best) is a safe place to repair how we interact with the outer world, i.e., relationship patterns and intimacy issues, as well as a safe place to uncover and repair our relationship with our inner world, i.e., negative self-image, addiction, etc. Therapy is your time; I am here to help guide and reflect and offer you about 50 minutes to touch ground, feel heard, and perhaps, spin a little less. My work with children and adolescents is similar in approach, with the addition of art and play-based therapy, family systems, and developmental theories. As a designer and artist, I love to work with other creatives and incorporate creativity and art-making into sessions with kids as well as adults.

Why I Became a Therapist

I have always been drawn to understanding what makes people tick. Psychological or otherwise, symptoms are cues for where to look but aren’t the true problem to be solved. Our symptoms (anxiety, depression, etc.) are the outward manifestations of our inner wounds and where the “work” begins. I love helping people uncover their own personal blocks to their path toward happiness and help them feel like the truest version of themselves.
