My Approach to Therapy

I work with adolescents, adults, and couples who are looking for new ways to approach their lives. I believe we learn strategies for being in the world from our experiences and social circumstances, and sometimes they work better than others. I also believe that our minds and bodies are a single system, so changes we make in one area are bound to impact the other. As a result, I like to explore creative biopsychosocial solutions. I wholeheartedly believe that my clients are in the driver’s seat. I’m here as a resource, support, and co-explorer through the therapeutic process. In addition to working with concerns like anxiety and depression, I specialize in integrating sexuality issues and mental health. Sexual identity, relationships, love, sex, health, pleasure, and hurt are essential parts of life, but they’re often compartmentalized in therapy. I have the comfort, skill, and knowledge to address these issues holistically. I know that finding a therapist you feel good about working with can be a challenge. We’re not one-size-fits-all. If you think we could be a good fit, please feel free to contact me by phone or email for more information, or to schedule a time to talk.
