As an individual therapist specializing in relational therapy for young adults and adolescents I am passionate about providing real, human-centered care. Most of my clinical work focuses on anxiety, interpersonal conflict/difficulties, emotional regulation, life transitions, and lasting impacts of trauma and past experiences.
I take an integrative approach to the work, addressing both how the symptoms are presenting today while also getting a sense of what is underlying the symptoms and causing them in the first place. My style is warm, collaborative, compassionate, and authentic. My approach is grounded in relational psychotherapy, and heavily informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS). With completed training in EMDR as well as additional trainings in CBT and DBT, I also bring in tools from this knowledge base when helpful. The work often looks like beginning with developing coping skills and building awareness, and then moving into deeper, more depth oriented work to understand what is underlying the clients symptoms - where it was learned, how is it getting enforced. Drawing on contemporary psychodynamic approaches informed by IFS, my work tends to place a strong emphasis on early life experiences and the behaviors we developed to keep ourselves safe that may no longer serve us in the same way.
