I strive to help clients understand their needs, issues, and suffering in the unique context of their lives. One person's symptoms may look and be caused by something very different than another's, requiring a deeper treatment approach than "generic textbook." I help clients to gain insight into the root causes of their distress so that they can work through rather than around their core issues. I help clients to understand what normal and healthy responses are to trauma (e.g., systems of oppression, grief, abuse) so that clients can externalize (e.g., not hold themselves responsible for) what they did not cause. I help clients work through the underlying sources of their pain and symptoms so that they can live on the other side of these wounds, with more self-compassion, insight, resilience, joy and peace. Some wounds may never go away, but doing this work can help to make them less intense, while honoring the unique experiences that make you who you are. I am currently accepting new clients for psychotherapy as well as therapists looking for consultation on their caseloads. I look forward to hearing from you.
