Practice Description
My approach to therapy is trauma-informed and rooted in social justice. I believe people are not defined by their problems, and that each person already possesses incredible resilience to thrive in difficult times. Trained in Couples and Family Therapy, I attend to the impact of relationships, environment, and context on the stressors that bring you into therapy. Therapy with me can help you identify positive changes you would like to make in your life, and support you in accessing your unique resources for growth. My clients experience strengths-based care that incorporates aspects of mindfulness practice, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills, and expressive arts. I practice from a weight-neutral, HAES® perspective, and am passionate about serving clients of marginalized identities, including LGBTQIA folks, people with disabilities and chronic illness, people of color, and adolescents.
