About My Practice
Hello, I am so glad you have found my website and I would love to tell you a bit about my practice:
I am a licensed therapist and I enjoy working with individuals of all ages. I am able to address a wide range of challenges, such as depression, trauma, grief, relationships, career, motivation, anxiety, and more. My work is always grounded in the cultivation of a trusting and positive therapeutic relationship. This is truly the foundation from which all healing and change takes place. Additionally, it is due to this positive therapeutic relationship that I find clients are able to achieve desired results and are motivated to continue in therapy.
Adults
When working with adults, I always take a person centered approach and I utilize a wide array of therapeutic modalities according to the best fit for the individual and the specific challenges being addressed. These modalities include, but are not limited to, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Psychotherapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Somatic Work, and Mindfulness Practices. Additionally, I approach the therapeutic process from a strengths based perspective.
Children
Children have an astonishing ability to work through emotional challenges when they are given a safe and therapeutic environment. Unlike adults, children's verbal and cognitive abilities are still developing. For this reason, when working with children, I primarily utilize directive and non-directive play therapy as this is the "language" through which children communicate. However, every child is unique and has a unique set of needs, which I continually reassesses throughout the therapeutic process.
