I have a very engaging and relaxed approach to therapy. Clients often report that they appreciate my authentic style and sense of humor. In any case, the process of therapy begins and is sustained as the client feels heard and understood and can begin to feel comfortable. I come to this work with a certain reverence for what is dignified, courageous, and creative in each of us which over time has informed my life both personally and in my work in supporting others. I rely on no particular therapy framework or "treatment modality" but nonetheless bring a pretty big box of tools to the table. From me, therapy is soulful process. If we connect we'll know it and maybe even have some fun. From my own healing journey and dedication to learning I have over time expanded my sense of what is possible for individuals in a complex world. So in a sense I see part of my job is to support an expanded imagining of what is possible in any given person. I've spent a lot of time and resources healing myself and learning to support others. I'm pretty dedicated to this. I am blessed with many teachers over the years whose guidance and support have been a true gift and enriched my life and for whom I am so grateful. And in this sense I am paying forward what I have received.
