What Is My Approach?
I am known for using a holistic, relational approach. This means that I view you as a whole person, and I care for all the parts that make you who you are. Building a close and trusted relationship is very important to me. I give unconditional empathy and warmth, while providing direct and honest feedback always with the intention of helping you grow. If you bring your dream, I'll bring the structure and vision so that you can love the way life feels again. We'll cry, we'll laugh, we'll challenge our ways of thinking, and then we will go together into a new future that feels safe, beautiful, and worth living.
I often incorporate somatic-based techniques to help trauma that is held in your body. I am always focused on your comfort and needs above all.
The techniques that inform my work are called:
Emotion-focused (EFT)
Trauma Informed
Strength-based
Psychodynamic
Cognitive-behavioral (CBT)
Somatic
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Do I Have Specialties?
With a background in International Disaster Psychology, I am trained to work with trauma of all kinds, from family abandonment or sexual assault to bombings and earthquakes. I work with people directly affected by trauma, and also the people working with trauma, such as aid workers, medical, and community workers.
I enjoy helping clients from all cultural backgrounds and am trained in working cross-culturally, such as those navigating immigration or couples who are navigating cultural differences.
Additionally, I have extensive knowledge in relationships, such as navigating communication, infidelity, attachment issues, and conflict.
I am affirming of LGBTQ+ and all cultural identities. I am sex-positive and work with non-monogamy. I am happy to provide letters for gender-affirming surgeries pro-bono.
Fees
I offer free consultations. My fees are $150 per individual session and $150 per relationship session. I have a sliding scale available on a limited basis for those who qualify. I do not accept health insurance, but I can accept payment through your HSA or FSA. I am happy to provide invoices which you can turn in to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.
I provide pro-bono services for letters for gender affirming surgeries.
