My Approach to Therapy

I work in a relational and present-focused way, paying attention to both what you’re thinking about and what you’re feeling in your body and emotions. Rather than following a rigid formula, I adapt how I work based on what each client needs in the moment.

Our work may include exploring patterns in relationships, understanding emotional responses, and building more awareness of how stress and anxiety show up for you day to day. Sometimes this looks like talking things through and making sense of experiences, and sometimes it means slowing down to notice what’s happening internally so new responses can emerge.

I draw from attachment-based, experiential, and nervous-system-informed perspectives, and I focus on helping clients develop greater emotional clarity, self-trust, and flexibility in how they respond to challenges.

Therapy with me is collaborative and paced to what feels safe and manageable. My goal is to help you better understand yourself and build tools that support real, lasting change.

Therapy Services

I offer two types of therapy sessions, based on how sessions are typically structured for insurance.

Most clients start with weekly sessions, and we adjust from there depending on how things are going and what you’re working toward. Meeting weekly helps create consistency in your brain and body and often helps the work move along faster. That said, there is no mandatory meeting frequency.

  • These sessions are primarily conversation-based and focused on helping you better understand what you’re thinking, feeling, and experiencing in your daily life. We may explore patterns in relationships, reactions to stress, and the situations that feel hardest right now.

    Sometimes our work looks like talking things through and making sense of experiences. Other times, it may involve slowing down to notice what’s happening emotionally or physically so you can respond in new ways. I tailor sessions to what feels most helpful in the moment, rather than following a rigid formula.

  • Extended sessions allow more time to explore what’s coming up for you without feeling rushed. These sessions can be especially helpful when you want to go deeper into a specific issue, process something emotionally complex, or take time to reflect and connect patterns across different areas of your life.

    Like shorter sessions, our work is collaborative and guided by what feels most relevant for you. We may spend time talking through experiences, noticing emotional or physical responses, and working toward greater clarity and flexibility in how you respond to stress, relationships, and challenges.

Our first conversation is a chance to talk about what you’re dealing with, what you’d like help with, and whether my style of therapy feels like a good match.
