Approach
Evidence-based, human-first.
A few principles shape every session.
Relationship first
Decades of research — and my own experience — confirm that the quality of the therapeutic relationship is the strongest predictor of meaningful change. We build that first.
Integrative, not dogmatic
I draw from cognitive-behavioral, motivational, person-centered, mindfulness-based, and recovery-oriented modalities. The right tool is the one that helps you.
Strengths-based
You arrive already carrying wisdom, resilience, and resource. My job is to help you see it clearly and use it well.
Pace that fits you
Some weeks we go deep. Some weeks we steady the ship. Therapy honors what is actually happening in your life right now.
