What's My Approach to Therapy?

It can be hard to take the step in starting work with a new therapist, especially when we feel our most vulnerable and are suffering. I work with the perspective that the therapeutic relationship between you and myself is of the greatest importance in order to achieve your goals in seeking therapeutic support and guidance. Although I am primarily trained in psychodynamic therapy, I have an eclectic approach in treating a wide variety of struggles which I tailor to each client's needs and preferences.

My focus is in individual treatment of adults experiencing difficult life transitions, stress, anxiety, depression, increased irritability, mood swings, relationship issues, suicidal thoughts, gendersexuality spectrum transition, kink aware, and trauma-related symptoms. Committed to continually working towards an anti-oppressive framework.
Please do not hesitate to contact me, even if you are unsure about starting treatment just yet but have questions that you would like to ask.

For every new potential client, I provide complimentary 15-minute phone consultations so that we can both get the sense as to whether I am the right clinician for you, both clinically and personally. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me, even if you are unsure about starting treatment just yet and have a few questions.
