Treatment
Struggling with anxiety, depression, or another mental health concern? I offer evidence-based treatment approaches that have been shown to be effective in helping individuals overcome a wide range of challenges.
Integrating Evidence-Based Treatment with Supportive Care
I believe in creating a safe and supportive space where healing and growth can occur. As an integrationist therapist, I combine evidence-based approaches with a focus on relational and psychodynamic principles, such as attachment theory and object relations. This allows me to tailor therapy to your unique needs and meet you "where you are at" in your journey.
Treatment Approach
My treatment approach focuses on combining the effectiveness of evidence-based modalities with the supportive nature of therapy. This allows me to address the specific challenges you face while fostering a strong therapeutic relationship.
Modalities
I offer individual therapy, couples therapy, and group therapy. Additionally, I facilitate evidence-based groups for individuals struggling with bipolar disorder and complex trauma. Please contact me for more information about these groups.
