I approach therapy with warmth and a deep belief in the power of collaboration. I see the therapeutic relationship as a partnership built on mutual respect, trust, and authenticity. I believe the relationship we build in therapy can be a powerful tool for exploring and changing interpersonal patterns, developing a stronger sense of self, and strengthening your sense of autonomy. My aim is to create a space where you feel understood, supported, and empowered to take an active role in your own healing and growth.
My therapeutic style is integrative, with the recognition that therapy is not one size fits all. I draw from relational and psychodynamic approaches in addition to integrating skills based treatments such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) to provide targeted symptom relief. My research, which focused on the use of humor as a tool to reframe distressing situations thereby creating improved emotion regulation and resilience, also informs my approach to therapy.
I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults with diverse histories who are dealing with anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, life transitions, identity exploration, and chronic illness. I welcome patients of all racial, ethnic, and religious backgrounds and strive to ensure that our work together reflects your unique identity and experiences. Together, we can work toward understanding and overcoming the challenges you face, helping you to live a more fulfilling and authentic life, and building on your strengths.
