My approach to working with clients is supportive, collaborative, and integrative. Being supportive means that I approach you with warmth, empathy, compassion, and a non-judgmental curiosity about everything you bring into session. As a collaborative therapist, it is also important to me that we bring together my clinical expertise with your lived experience and existing strengths to work through your issues side-by-side. Clinically, I am a integrative therapist who first considers what you need, and then draws from multiple evidence-based therapeutic approaches (e.g. psychodynamic, humanistic, interpersonal, relational cultural, existential, and CBT) to create an individualized therapy that is effective for you. In other words, I believe in trying different approaches until we find the right combination that works for you.
