It’s always my goal to meet you exactly where you’re at.  My style is warm, nurturing, compassionate, and nonjudgmental.   I believe that a strong therapeutic alliance is necessary as a basis for all healing, and can also be healing in and of itself.  I take a client-centered, trauma informed approach and look to collaborate on all of the work we do together.  I believe that we must look at the stories we tell ourselves about who we are and try to understand the meaning we’ve attached to them.  These stories can inform our beliefs and feelings about ourselves.  We will learn to move through difficult emotions that may arise and develop new ways of coping together. At the end of the day, it’s really just about having a conversation.
