How I Work:
Therapy is a deeply personal journey, and finding the right fit matters. My approach is compassionate, collaborative, and grounded in evidence-based practices that support lasting growth and change. I work with both individuals and couples, tailoring my methods to each client’s unique needs, goals, and pace.
For Individuals:
In one-on-one sessions, I use different methods to help clients. These techniques help people understand themselves better, deal with emotions, and build better relationships with themselves and others.
Relational Therapy: Our therapeutic relationship is central to the work. This approach looks at how past and present relationships affect your emotions. It shows that healing occurs through connection.
Emotion Focused Therapy (EFT): Emotions are vital sources of information. EFT helps you access and understand your emotions. This can transform your experiences. As a result, you gain greater self-acceptance and clarity.
Motivational Interviewing: If you feel stuck or unsure about change, this approach helps you discover and boost your own motivation and commitment to grow.
Attachment-Based Therapy: Our early attachment experiences often shape how we relate to others. This approach gently explores those patterns to foster more secure and fulfilling relationships.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) & Mindfulness: I mix CBT techniques with mindfulness. This helps clients deal with anxiety, depression, and unhelpful thoughts.
For Couples:
In couples' work, my goal is to help partners feel seen, heard, and emotionally connected. Relationships are where we experience our deepest wounds—and also our greatest healing.
Emotion-Focused Couples Therapy (EFT): I help couples spot and change emotional patterns. This helps both partners feel safer, more connected, and secure in their relationship.
Attachment-Based Work: Knowing each partner’s attachment style can reveal the root of conflict. This understanding can open new ways to build connection and trust.
The Gottman Method: This approach uses years of research to help couples. It strengthens their friendship, improves communication, and makes conflict resolution easier.
