Hello! I work with adults in individual, couple, group and (step)family therapy. My primary focus is on providing a safe, collaborative, empathic therapy space with clear, qualified professional guidance, and building a relationship in which you feel fully seen and heard.
Many of my clients are looking to deepen their understanding about themselves and to identify and uncover the fears that are controlling their unwanted behavior patterns and emotional reactions. In therapy, the focus is often on exploring emotions, relationships, behaviors as well as identifying underlying mental health issues that, if present, are important to name, understand diagnostically and treat appropriately. However, therapy goals are very different for each client and how we will work together will depend on your specific needs. Treatments can range from a one-session consultation to in-depth longterm therapy.
In addition to my schooling and practice in major mental health, I have extensive training in college counseling, working with students (including international students) on relational, cultural, family and identity issues. I also have researched and written about stepfamilies, specifically the experience of stepmothers in joint custody stepfamilies, and am deeply committed to supporting all members of the many complex stepfamily systems.
