High Conflict Childhoods & Families My parents are assholes/there's no room for my emotions/I can't be myself
AnxietyConstant questioning and why are there no answers?!

Grief & Loss I'm having complicated feelings about it, and it's just so heavy. What's the point of life? What am I supposed to do now that it's all different?

What Is My Approach?
Therapy is hard, so it should also feel fun, comforting, and safe.I'm known to give unconditional empathy and warmth, while providing direct and honest feedback. Building a trusted relationship is very important to me!
Here are the buzzwords:
Emotionally-focused (EFT)
Trauma Informed
Strength-based
Psychodynamic
Cognitive-behavioral (CBT)
Somatic
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)
... And here's what they actually mean:
I help you understand and regulate your emotions
I use a therapy structure safe for your brain
I help you find solutions based on what you're naturally good at
We do go into the past to understand the now
Sometimes we question your thoughts and beliefs about yourself
Other times we look to the body as a source of wisdom
You learn about all the parts that make you who you are
And sometimes, if appropriate, we use additional supports
