My approach to the therapeutic process is inquisitive, supportive, and collaborative. I strive to be conscious of racial and cultural identities, as well as the invisible identities my clients often hold. I recognize that my clients are the experts in their lives. Together, we work through the issues they present.
Because my training was rooted in psychodynamic psychotherapy, I place great emphasis on helping individuals connect current behaviors, thoughts, and emotions to earlier life experiences. Through these connections, my clients gain insight and enhanced tools to move about their daily lives in a healthier, more effective manner.
Many of my clients are people who are in need of a guide. I am someone who views you as a
“whole person” with existing strengths that can be built upon. Through our work together I strive to help you grow stronger, more confident, and fulfilled.
