Therapy Goals

My main goal is to get to know you. Therapy can help to demystify things and integrate your mind and body. I like to work with clients to develop practical skills. Skills that can be used to manage overwhelming feelings and to control behaviors that often cause interpersonal issues. I believe our mind develops a rolling narrative of life, a version that we actively accept. It aligns so much with how we feel, that we rarely challenge it. We get stuck when we cannot look at life with a subjective lens.

Sessions with me include psychodynamic approach. I pull from multiple different therapies depending on what you need. I use tools in session to help provoke cognitive shifts such as role plays, worksheets and experiments. So far, the most profound thing I have learned as a licensed therapist is: Therapy is a transient process where clients simply come in, get help and move on. 

Working with Trauma

I use a narrative exposure, EMDR and CBIT to support clients with trauma histories. Along with somatic theory my approach is especially recommended for individuals who struggle with complex, historical or multiple traumas. During this structured theoretical approach we walk back through your most intense memories with the goal of as minimal arousal as possible. You do not have to relive the feelings of your experience to heal. With narrative exposure I am looking to help you identify your strengths.

Trauma histories in relationships can complicate things. Despite the difficulty relationships with others pose, they are possible and highly recommended! narrative exposure and CBIT can help couples identify patterns in their relationship. I also use PACT theories and interventions to encourage emotion regulation and reduce reactivity. Don't let overwhelming feelings get in the way of having a relationship.

Working with Couples/Partners

As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist I believe it is my duty to treat and support couples and families. I use PACT theory and interventions as a base with couples and families. In addition, I use attachment theory, psychodynamic and CBIT approaches. Sessions are highly experiential and somatic. I prefer to see couples and families in person so we can use the room and spacing to create experiences. I also provide this service via tele-health.
