approach

Beginning counseling is brave and can feel vulnerable; I make sure to create a counseling space that  is non-judgmental and safe. My approach is warm, collaborative, and relational. I can help you feel understood and to find deeper connections to your strengths. 

Our wounds and symptoms can point us in the direction of healing and hold treasures to be discovered. My approach is primarily Depth/Jungian and Humanistic. I encourage a foundation of acceptance & self-compassion, providing space for all parts to be discovered and expressed so that healing can occur.  

I adapt my approach to best meet the needs of my clients and their values and cultural background. My approach can include EMDR, art therapy, exploration of: dreams, imagination and physical cues, or simply talk therapy.

I have experience working with a diverse range of adult clients in community mental health settings. I have experience and enjoy working with people from a wide range of backgrounds including race, ethnicity, nationality, ability, socioeconomic status, spirituality/religion, sexual orientation, and gender. I believe educating myself on culture is life-long work to which I am committed.
