Approach
Using a warm and collaborative style, I work with clients to explore, understand, and negotiate difficulties including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, life transitions, family conflict, self-esteem and identity development. I believe in providing a supportive environment where clients feel safe to share hopes, fears, and experiences. Through open dialogue, I seek to be attuned to each client's emotional experience, family context, and cultural/ethnic/religious background to create a nuanced understanding and customize treatment.
I use an exploratory style to foster self-reflection and self-awareness, which I believe lead to a capacity for growth. I combine this with a more direct approach to alleviate symptoms, recognize patterns, and make concrete changes. My goal is to help clients understand their experiences and reactions, and be the best version of themselves.
