My Approach to Helping
When you contact me, you might feel depressed, anxious, and overwhelmed. You feel like life has gotten "so bad" or uncomfortable that you reach out for support and understanding. I believe we come into this world with an innate sense of self and self-worth. Unfortunately, life events, relationships, etc., sometimes cloud that sense. I can help you get it back.
We begin by defining your goals for therapy. What do you want for yourself and your relationships with others? Together, we will explore the thoughts, feelings, and origins of your distress, while at the same time generating practical coping skills to use outside of the therapy room. My therapeutic methods incorporate depth psychology, psychodynamic, and cognitive behavioral techniques. You will take me on a journey through your life and your thoughts, and we will explore it together.
