My approach
I view the therapeutic relationship as partnership of two equals, where we come together to explore the events that have shaped your current state. I am committed to providing you a space that is inclusive, non-judgmental, open-space for you to explore, identify and ultimately work to rise above sources of your suffering. I’m here to meet you where you are, honoring your unique experiences, beliefs, and values. All I ask is that you come as your true, authentic self to our sessions.
My therapeutic style is integrative and draws heavily from Psychodynamic approaches, while incorporating Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) strategies. Utilizing an integrative approach means that at times we may focus on specific coping strategies to alleviate symptoms, while at other times we may explore deeper emotions or recurring themes in your life that adversely impact your well-being and relationships. In short, I am a psychotherapist who will give you access to quality clinical treatment you may want, and provide the empathy, warmth and safety you need.
I believe that coming to understand the underlying–perhaps even–unconscious–sources of our pain, sets the stage for genuine and sustainable healing. As you come to a deeper understanding of yourself through therapy, you may find that symptoms begin to subside, and you will be able to engage more authentically and meaningfully in life. Therapy will allow you to cultivate a renewed sense of courage and resolve to confront difficult situations or emotions, opening up potential for a new and more empowered life. This is how we will work to build your best life.
Safer Space
As a cisgender able-bodied person of color, I am aware that racism, sizeism, ableism, ageism and sexism (among many others) exist in a deep and long-standing way in this world. It is my commitment to you that if you self-identify as a member of any non-dominant or marginalized social, political, sexual, economic, ethic or spiritual community or culture, I will work to be conscious, respectful, and aware in my work with you.
