I endeavor to understand what it's like to be you -- this means that I gather a lot of information in the first few sessions so that I can feel into your experience as fully as possible. I offer reflections, empathy, psychoeducation, reframes around your current and past experience, interpretations, and new skills and strategies to try. I work from a strength-based approach and believe that everyone has an inner healing intelligence that can guide them toward a place of deep thriving; I also recognize that family and social conditions routinely alienate us from that intelligence, and that partnering with a therapist is a useful strategy for finding your way home to yourself.
