Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
Sometimes life just gets messy. I enjoy supporting both minors and adults in finding self compassion and growth while experiencing the uncomfortable. In sessions together, we can learn to do this by navigating trauma responses, depression, anxiety, life transitions, suicidal thoughts, relationships, body-image challanges, disordered eating, behavioral issues, and stress. Through both doing my own work and spending time with clients, I wholeheartedly feel we can find so much healing by getting curious about our emotions and greeting whatever arises with kindness, respect, and a bit of humor My approach to therapy centers around an authentic provider-client partnership. So every support plan is tailored to the client. I use a mix of Internal Family Systems, EMDR, Mindfulness, Play Therapy, ERP, ACT, Ecotherapy, Yoga, Somatic Processing and DBT to help them find peace with the hard stuff Beinf a person is just hard. I also believe every person already has the capacity and knowledge needed to thrive. I would be honored to walk with you during your healing by providing a safe environment to untangle experiences and reconnect with yourself
