Personal Statement

I use the therapeutic relationship to explore new ways of being in relationship with self and others, build new habits from experiential awareness, and find meaning & purpose. My approach is based on developmental and attachment theories and begins with the most basic intention: total acceptance of all aspects of the self. I operate on the premise that acceptance brings us into conscious relationship with the many parts of ourselves that were exiled in order to be loved by others. Shame and fear melt away in a container of acceptance and non-judgement and what emerges is a beautiful, powerful expression of authentic self.

The most fundamental work we will do in the psychotherapeutic process is rewiring a secure system. The goal is to liberate your life force from survival mode connecting you to your own resources & innate wisdom. Liberated from insecurity you have everything you need to thrive.

Before one is secure in the self, anxieties and perceived threat of simply living day-to-day can prevent functioning at your fullest capacity, or even sometimes at all. Transformation through relationship is a powerful, focused approach to healing. I would love to work with you.. please reach out for a free consult to see if we are a fit.
