Therapy style

My therapy style is warm, practical, and nonjudgmental. I have found that leading with authenticity and reserving judgment is key to building a safe, therapeutic relationship that will be the foundation for our work together. I prioritize your individual perspective and experiences and tailor our sessions to serve both your overarching goals and your needs in the moment. My approach to therapy is rooted in traditional psychodynamic practice while incorporating skills specifically targeted at supporting you in reaching your goals. I deeply value the relationship between therapist and client; when that relationship is strong, therapy can be life-changing. Through the therapeutic alliance we build together, we can find a path forward that feels right and is most effective for you.
