Therapeutic Biography
I take a person-centered approach to therapy. You are the expert on your life experience. I became a therapist to help YOU. That means taking the knowledge that I have and working with you to reach your goals. Therapeutic modalities can often be rigid and linear; human beings are not. I am incredibly flexible with my therapeutic style, and like to implement several types of modalities. I take inspiration from ACT, mindfulness based work, motivational interviewing, and CBT. I am not afraid to pivot if one approach isn't helpful. I am here for you, and I don't want to waste your time using a therapy style that isn't meeting your needs. Straightening out the confusion inside your head can be a lot to figure out. Maybe things seem overwhelming, like you aren't able to handle shifts in your thinking or new things going on in your life. You might experience spiraling thoughts of "What if?" that torment you during the day and keep you up at night. It could be that you have found ways to cope that you no longer find helpful. Perhaps just the idea of scheduling an appointment sounds exhausting, but you are hoping things can look better. You are here, right now, reading this. You have already started the process of change, and I am ready to guide you to the next steps of improving your life. Let's keep that momentum going. Reach out to see if I am a good fit for your therapy needs.
