I draw from a range of evidence-based modalities and tailor my approach to what each person actually needs:

• Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) — identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns

• Relational - valuing the relationship we build through transparency, humor, compassion... learning about each other in a deep and fundamental way because the relationship we create is the crux of the work.

• Trauma-Focused approaches — working carefully and safely through traumatic experiences via trauma focused cbt,  attachment based therapy, somatic processing, and mindfulness/self-compassion practices.

• Parent Child Interaction Therapy (PCIT) - consulting with parents/caregivers re: on the best ways to show up for our next generation and meet their needs. 

• Multicultural & Family Systems frameworks- because you don't exist outside of your relationships and context… they all deserve space to be processed and explored.

I am curious, warm, and direct. I value transparency in the therapeutic relationship — which means I'll share my genuine reactions, gently challenge you when it's useful, and always work collaboratively with you rather than at you.
