STRENGTHS-BASED/HUMANISTIC

I am a humanistic, strengths-based therapist. I have a collaborative and relational approach to therapy. I believe that trust is the foundation of a healthy therapeutic relationship and as such, I commit to showing up to our work together as authentically, and with as much transparency, as possible. I am not a blank slate, but I am also not in the practice of giving advice or telling you what you “should” do. Instead, I will support you in exploring your answers to the deeper questions related to whatever challenge you are navigating and hold space for you as you explore the thoughts, feelings and insights that arise. 

SOCIAL JUSTICE/SYSTEMS ORIENTED

I am trained in systems theory and have a social justice orientation to my work. I am aware of the significant impact that systems of oppression have on our lived experiences and believe that identifying and freeing oneself from this impact is part of the healing process. I will work with you to unwind the overt and subtle dynamics of oppression and social conditioning and support you in enhancing your personal and relational wellbeing.
