About

My work is, first and foremost, trauma-focused; I’m always looking at your experiences and thinking about how they might have affected your ability to move through the world smoothly. My favorite ways to support you are through attachment and psychodynamic/relational lenses. This basically means your experiences and relationships (particularly early ones) play a part in your life as well as in our work. I’m also a fan of mindfulness and self-compassion frameworks because of the gentleness of these approaches (not to mention because they’ve helped me so much, too). View 5 Photos I often use humor to help you build the skills to handle life's challenges. I'm your cheerleader, strive to give helpful direction, and validate your feelings. I’ll call you out when needed. I believe therapy's goal is to help you build a life worth living, whatever that means to you!
