About
My therapeutic approach is informed by a client-first, heart centered curiosity embarking on a journey together with open, non-judgmental, exploration. I choose from varied and flexible therapeutic schools of thought that are guided by a 'whole person' perspective focusing on each person's unique strengths, needs and preferences. Although working with trauma is my passion, I lean in and gravitate toward Attachment Theory, Psychodynamic, Family Systems, Gestalt, CBT, Gottman and mindfulness-based techniques. A significant portion of my practice is blended with resourcing, grounding, body awareness and mapping of emotional experiences. My passion for helping to treat trauma has guided additional training in somatic psychotherapy and EMDR treatment. I work primarily with adult women, men, couples, and gender fluid identifiers 18+ years of age. I am impassioned to work with diverse ethnicities, those disenfranchised, and members of the LGBTQ community. I lead by deep compassion.
