Personal Statement
I'll be honest with you... therapy is hard work. At times it can even be scary or painful. The good news is: You don't have to do it alone! We'll work together to overcome challenges and meet your goals.
My approach is holistic, focusing on you as a whole person and working to identify the source(s) of a problem in addition to reducing symptoms. I take an integrative approach with each client based on individual needs, but much of our work together will involve examining thoughts/beliefs, feelings, and behaviors; identifying any negative or maladaptive patterns; and working to alter those patterns to be more useful and constructive. I am also trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), which is an evidence-based therapeutic approach for treating trauma.
