Individual Therapy
I focus on anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, cultural and racial issues, and trauma in my work with individuals. Trauma can show up in our bodies, emotions, thoughts, spirit, at work and in relationships. When I work with trauma, I consider how each person has been impacted not only by their own individual experiences but also by the systemic and cultural forces that surround them and permeate their lives.
Couples Therapy
I am passionate about supporting couples! When I work with couples, I draw mostly from the model Intimacy from the Inside Out (IFIO), developed by Toni Herbine-Blank, MS, RN, Cs-P. IFIO is based on the IFS model and is one of the most respectful, effective models I’ve used for helping couples find greater joy, ease and connection in their relationships.
Therapy for Adolescents
Adolescence is often a time of exploration, changing identity, and growing emphasis on the importance of peer friendships. This time of exploration can sometimes look like confusion, changing personalities, and defiance. My hope is that therapy can be a safe place for your teen to explore and enjoy who they are to themselves, who they are in relation to their family and friends, and who they are in relation to the world as they prepare to launch into the world of young adulthood.
Therapy for Substance Abuse
Perhaps you’re wondering if this is the right time to make changes. Maybe substance use used to make things easier or provide some relief but now things are getting harder. If you would like to be on a different course, I’d love to respectfully and compassionately be a part of that change and accompany you through the process of true recovery.
Supervision
I provide individual supervision on site for AMFTs, ASWs, and APCs in-person or remotely via video conferencing. I supervise from a perspective informed by social justice values, trauma theory, reflective supervision perspectives, and cultural humility values. I welcome all pre-licensed, registered individuals seeking supervision.
