The ability to grow and integrate the various pieces of ourselves in a way that makes sense to us is critical to our well-being. When our mental, physical, emotional, or spiritual health (or some or all of those) are impacted, other pieces are as well. Therapy can be a way to help you understand what’s going on for you and figure out what you might like to shift to come closer to feeling good – about yourself, your environment, and those with whom you interact.
I approach my practice from a client-centered, harm reduction perspective. My psychotherapeutic specialties include working with young adults, those in social service/social justice work, and people in the midst of any life transition (adolescence, employment, relationship, role shifts). I have experience working with people managing depression, anxiety, chronic stress, food/weight issues, substance use/addiction issues, self-injury, chronic and complex trauma, as well as living in poverty and chronically violent communities.
If you are a first-timer, a seasoned therapy client, or someone who’s had a negative experience, consider me. My interest is in helping you help yourself. You’ll let me know what you need (or if you don’t know, we’ll figure it out together) and I’ll work with you to get you where you want to be.
The grass is greener where you water it. – Neil Barrington
