Home/My Approach
My ApproachAwareness is where change begins.
I take a client-centered approach, focusing on each person's uniqueness and building a plan around your strengths and your goals—not a one-size-fits-all formula.
In our work together, we'll embark on a journey of self-exploration—examining and resolving the thoughts and behaviors that have been limiting your potential. I'll help you identify your strengths and build a plan to step out of the patterns that keep you stuck. My belief is simple: insight and awareness are the primary forces of change, and a genuine, trusting relationship is what makes that depth of work possible.
One foundation, several tools
My core is psychodynamic, and I integrate evidence-based approaches to fit what you're working through.
Psychodynamic & Insight-Oriented Therapy
We explore how your history and inner world shape today's patterns—so change reaches below the surface and lasts.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing helps the brain reprocess distressing memories so they lose their charge.
Trauma Resiliency Model (TRM)
A body-based, nervous-system approach that restores a felt sense of safety after overwhelming experiences.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)
Concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and healthier relationships.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Identifying and shifting the unhelpful thoughts and behaviors that quietly keep distress going.
Body-Positive & Trauma-Informed
A weight-inclusive, non-shaming approach to food, body, and self-worth, grounded in safety and choice.
How we'll begin
No pressure, no jargon—just a clear, human path from first contact to feeling at home in the work.

Getting to know your story
In our early sessions we'll map what brought you here and what you hope to be different.
