Navigating life socially, professionally, and intimately can be challenging at times, but with the right support system it doesn’t always have to feel like a mountain to climb. Perhaps you’re someone who gives so much of themselves to others, but find that your relationships lack reciprocity and feelings of shame or guilt interfere with setting healthy boundaries. Therapy is a valuable resource for moments when pressure from external forces begins to make you feel anxious or overwhelmed, and you don’t necessarily have people in your life to confide in. When relationships fall apart, you lose a loved one, or are going through a major transitional period in your life, it can be beneficial to have the counsel of a mental health professional. However, therapy isn’t always only for times of crisis, and it can be just as valuable for maintenance and personal inventory. As a therapist I work with the adult population with a focus on trauma, depression, anxiety, grief, and interpersonal issues but treatment will always be tailored to your specific needs as I don’t believe in therapy as a one size fits all model. I pride myself on being a compassionate active listener offering a space where you can safely explore your thoughts and feelings from a nonjudgmental and unbiased perspective. If you’re experiencing ruminating thoughts or you feel as though you are caught in a repetitive cycle, it’s a privilege for me to be able to help you work through those moments in life where you may be feeling stuck. My approach is an integration of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and psychodynamic therapy, but I also lean on aspects of humanistic therapy and philosophy to bridge the gap between one’s mental health and overall functioning in the present moment and events of one’s past. The goal is to use this safe space to not only explore your thoughts and feelings but to tailor the treatment to your unique and specific needs to gain equanimity.
