Therapy has the potential to guide the brain-body-true self to be in greater connection, while
activating change and healing through compassion, adapting, accepting, and strengthening social
connection through a rhythm of dialogue, flow of new ideas, redefining narratives, and being in
tune with the ever evolving ways of how we think, feel, and respond.
One meeting at a time, as well as feedback, are essential parts of my approach and conversations -
what’s working well and what isn’t - guiding our work together.
Individual (adolescents & adults)
I'm mindful that a good fit is important in therapy, while feeling a connection and understanding that
encourages being oneself, feeling like an equal part, and being able to provide feedback to one another -
while supporting new ways of thinking and a greater sense of meaning individually and within relationships.Couples & Families (including children)
Getting involved in therapy sooner than later can be key. My suggestion would be to seek a therapist during
moderate to significant levels of distress and when noticing negative patterns of conflict & communication.
Often people wait to ride it out, or avoid it, but it will often resurface. Being involved (in therapy) as a couple,
or family, may be a more effective approach, as the problem(s) is affecting multiple people. Often, one family
member (who is seen as having a problem) is urged to see an individual therapist, which can limit the ability
for the family/network to work through together and create an opening to discuss what lies beneath - possibly
gone unspoken - affecting those who are part of the couple/family.Partnership & Marriage
Whether you’re in a long-term relationship, married, contemplating marriage, or engaged, having essential conversations & understanding on the following topics can have a strong impact on the future of your
relationship. Some topics include: Commitment, Communication, Identity, Trust, Blending families,
Conflict, Spirituality & Faith, Culture, Intimacy, Sex, Health, Children, Family, Finances, Debt, Career.
Also, for the marriages & partnerships needing a thoughtful space to discuss separation, divorce,
and coparenting.Open Dialogue
Family-Network mtgs offered, as well as Intro to Open Dialogue workshops.Consultation & Support for Parents, Friends, & Family
Guidance for family & friends, who are helping someone through a difficult period or extreme mental health experience. This is often an overwhelming experience for all involved and an experienced outside perspective
can be beneficial. Themes discussed are: communication, managing expectations & uncertainty, self-care,
recognizing burnout, walking on egg shells, setting limits, finances, planning, and sustaining hope.

+ A go-between person to help with communication among family, trustees, or third parties
+ Assist in managing monthly income and expenses

Students & Parents (high school & college)
School is often a stressful period of transition and adjustment, for students & parents, with finding balance
managing schedules, social & academic demands, being away from home, redefining identity & independence, finances…. Our meetings can be a place to reset, identify needs, discuss skills & new ways to cope, and express suppressed experiences.Intervision & Consultation (individual, groups, organizations)
Intervision is mutual learning, intercolleagial, and less about the traditional supervisor holding the power
and all knowing position, while having a creative process to the mtgs. Intervision & Consultation, from an outside source, can bring about a fresh perspective from someone who is not part of the day-to-day and can help develop new ideas, while supporting those who continue to grow as therapists. It can also be helpful for agencies that have limited time & resources for support to staff.
