Tired of feeling disconnected from yourself, others, and the world? When a client or couple begins therapy with me, my first goal is to understand the nature of their distress in a supportive, nonjudgmental space. Together, we build a vision of more freedom, flexibility, and possibility through practical skills and deeper exploration. My approach is warm, interpretive, directive, and relational. I value the therapeutic relationship and the unique opportunity it creates to explore how you connect with others. From these insights, we can practice new ways of relating with others outside of therapy. With individuals, I may utilize Somatic Experiencing to connect with body responses, a psychodynamic lens to increase awareness of implicit feelings and meaning, and EMDR to dial down the volume of past memories. With couples, I draw from Gottman-informed and Emotion-Focused approaches to explore underlying fears and recurring relational roles. I'm a Licensed Associate Counselor in Arizona and a deep thinker and feeler who values curiosity, connection, and understanding.
