develop a personalized plan to help get you unstuck and on track to living the life you want. Therapy with me is based in science, but not impersonal or formulaic. We usually work to improve both current challenges and long-standing issues.

I combine several approaches that help you understand patterns and themes that might be holding you back, and learn new skills to feel better. I'm not a "sit and nod" therapist; I share my perceptions and ideas with you, and sessions are active.
Explore the societal expectations and pressures that are suspending your growth; discover the parts of yourself that feel too vulnerable to say out loud to others; and recognize the stressors in your life and identify tools to manage them.

I work collaboratively, providing a safe, culturally sensitive, and encouraging virtual space to explore all of the stressors that are impacting you. I believe we can hold space for the parts of life that are hard and the parts that bring joy.
Work toward cultivating self-compassion and empowerment, especially when life experiences have made them feel distant. Understand the influence of your past and honor all you have done in order to survive. Find space for joy and play.

I believe that healing happens in relationships, so I work with my clients to collaboratively create a space that allows each of us to show up authentically. All parts of you are invited in, even the parts you aren't sure about yet.
Work to identify strategies and techniques that can begin to offer some relief. We will also begin to alter problematic/less functional narratives that negatively impact your life. Self-compassion is a skill that I work on with almost every client.

It is my responsibility to pay attention to the big picture- noting common themes that come up. Often concerns that we have present differently across different domains (work, home, etc.) but the emotional underpinnings and impact can be similar.
Together, we will cover topics such as emotional control, effective communication, setting boundaries, self-awareness, and self-acceptance. I also offer techniques for mindfulness, relaxation, resilience building, and fostering a growth mindset.

During therapy, I offer client-centered counseling, where clients are welcomed to express their thoughts and emotions to delve into and comprehend current life stressors.
