My Approach to Therapy:
​
My approach is one characterized by warmth, humor, and the welcoming of diverse experiences, identities, and perspectives. I believe in tailoring the treatment to the unique needs of my clients and providing a safe space that is equally supportive and challenging.
I offer psychodynamic individual psychotherapy for adolescents and adults, as well as couples therapy, clinical supervision, and consultation services.
I enjoy working with people from all walks of life, and make every effort to help those I work with feel welcomed, engaged, supported, and respected.
I endeavor to provide a safe therapeutic frame that is inclusive of social and cultural context, and therefore, welcome discussions of issues related to oppression, privilege, and of course, intersectionality of complex identity statuses.
