“The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are.” -Chauncey Depew
My Approach
We all need help sometimes. Are you struggling with anxiety, trauma, life changes, issues around gender and/or sexual orientation, or relationships with unhealthy dynamics? I help people to work through inner struggles that may be getting in the way of what they want for their life. My hope for everyone is that they find more peace, strength, and joy in life.
As an Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapist, I serve as a guide to help clients to compassionately look at all of the parts that have developed within themself throughout life with a non-pathologizing lens. I also utilize Mindfulness-based, Cognitive-Behavioral (CBT), EMDR, and other approaches depending on the needs of the client. I specialize in working with lesbian, gay, queer, and transgender populations.
I often hear that I bring peace to tense situations and a feeling of acceptance. I intentionally combine acceptance of one’s thoughts & feelings with the goal of changing what is no longer working for a person. Contact me for a free telephone consultation to see if I would be a good fit for you.
