My Approach to Helping

More Info About My Practice

My years as a therapist have taught me that we are all resilient, we all have strengths and coping skills. My years as a therapist have also taught me that when we go through a crisis, or a series of crises, our coping skills can get overwhelmed. They stop working for us and we can feel depressed, anxious, angry or even ashamed that we can't handle it—whatever "it" is—on our own. It may seem counterintuitive, but I believe that these times can be an opportunity for growth and healing.

There are a variety of approaches when it comes to therapy, but for me the key to effective therapy is a relationship built on empathy, trust and understanding. I believe in pulling from whatever approach I think will be useful based on current research and my years of professional experience. I strive to create a space where you can discover healthier coping strategies, hidden strengths and work on restoring hope.
