About Therapy

My therapeutic approach is founded on principles of Gestalt, Liberation Psychology, and Existential Humanism.  Depending on our focus areas, I will also draw on interventions based in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Exposure Response Prevention, Collaborative Problem Solving, and creative art therapies.  Working with me in therapy is a collaborative, reflective, and dynamic process.  I view clients as the experts of their lives, while my role as therapist is to facilitate exploration of the self, be fully present with the multi-faceted ground of you life, and to challenge patterns and beliefs that may no longer be helpful to you.  We will collaborate on your specific goals and the paths you traverse to reach them.

​

I primarily work with adults and adolescents age 10 and up in individual therapy.  Family and couple’s sessions are intended to support the individual in their therapeutic process.

​

Treatment areas in which I have experience and training include:

• Grief & loss

• ADHD

• Depression

• Stress Management

• Anxiety: acute, generalized, & phobias

• Gender identity exploration & affirmation

• Technology use difficulties

• Major life transitions
