Specific Challenges
I currently provide mental health counseling and therapy to adolescents (16+) and adults. The majority of clients I work with have experienced trauma in its many forms and are facing the challenges that come along with it: distressing emotions, difficulties in self-esteem and identity, and issues in important relationships. While my practice focuses on trauma, I also work with individuals across the lifespan facing life transitions, depression, anxiety, grief, family and relationship conflict, military challenges, and LGBTQIA+ issues.
About My Approach
As humans, we are hardwired to heal through meaningful contact and relationship with others, but mental health challenges often leave us feeling ashamed, misunderstood, and fearful of revealing our pain to those we rely on most. For that reason, my priority in each and every session is to meet you as another human and to develop an atmosphere where you feel seen, heard, and above all, safe. Therapy is not one-size-fits-all, and in each session we will work to create a therapeutic process that aligns with your experiences, perspectives, and desires, adjusting wherever needed. My approach incorporates a blend of techniques from the NeuroAffective Relational Model, as well as attachment-based, somatic, trauma-informed, cognitive, existential, and emotion-focused therapies.
Payment Methods
I currently only accept private pay and cannot take insurance, but I offer a sliding scale based on current household income and accept payment by card, cash, and check.
Current Availability
I have availability Monday - Thursday at varying times in the morning and afternoon, ranging between 8am and 5pm.
