therapy Services
individual therapy
We are all unique. There is no one-size-fits-all way of working with clients. I encourage the uniqueness and approach therapy with the same lens. I draw upon aspects of psychodynamic theory, attachment theory, humanistic theory, mindfulness-based CBT, DBT, and narrative therapy amongst others. I am a firm believer that real change occurs in a collaborative relationship between therapist and client, in a safe and caring space.
Ideal for someone who wants to work on interpersonal struggles, identity issues, self-esteem, coping skills, communication issues, maladaptive behaviors, trauma, and self-exploration.
family therapy
Often the identified patient is not the sole reason for dysfunction within the family system. Great work happens when the whole family comes to therapy. Together we will uncover issues within the family system and learn healthy communication and response to stress. A family systems approach is used to assist with parenting skills, adjusting to change within the family unit, and maladaptive behaviors.
substance abuse
Ideal for individuals working on achieving sobriety after going through inpatient treatment or are currently working in an IOP and are working a program (AA, NA, etc.) Using DBT, CBT, and other evidence-based treatments, I will help you navigate processing the reasons behind the substance abuse and support you as you build healthy coping skills and new habits.
