Strengths-Based Collaborative Treatment

 

You already have the wisdom, strengths, and skills you need within you. We will work together to reconnect with your inner compass, build on what's working, and support you in growing your resilience.

 

Relationships

Whether it’s a romantic relationship, a family relationship, or a friendship, if you want to have better communication and connection, therapy can help you grow your skillset and approach topics that are hard to talk about.

Stress & Anxiety

You may feel like your thoughts are always going on a loop. It’s hard to settle down. You find yourself racing or rushing from one thing to the next. At night you might be exhausted, but it’s still hard to settle down.

Compassion Fatigue & Burnout

It’s important to you to be there for others; it’s a value you hold dear. That’s a beautiful thing, except that sometimes it can take its toll on you. Therapy is a way to replenish yourself so you can show up the way you want to.

Coping with Transition

Big changes in our lives stir up a lot of feelings, even ones that can surprise us. Without naming these events and emotions, we get overwhelmed or stuck. Therapy provides space to name these experiences so you can start moving forward.

Becoming a New Parent

You prepared so much for the arrival of the new baby, but along the way, space for your relationship got lost. Becoming parents brings such joy and also enormous change. Let’s work together to get you reconnected.

Grief & Loss

Loss comes in many forms. You may have lost a loved one, faced a miscarriage, or infertility. Or you may have experienced a loss that’s less tangible-like a friendship, a move, or a job change. No matter what, healing from loss starts when it’s acknowledged and witnessed.

 Online Therapy

I hold all therapy sessions on a secure telehealth platform that’s convenient and easy-to-use.

I’m happy to provide you with the same high-quality care that you would get in my office while we all do our part to keep ourselves and our community healthy and safe during this time.

True Connection

As humans, we were never meant to be isolated, and it’s hard on all of us in many ways. Even neuroscience backs this notion that we grow in connection to others. To belong, to feel seen and to feel safe are some of our most basic human needs. My approach to therapy is about having a real relationship with you so that you can flourish, even now when times are as challenging as ever.

Listen to that little voice that says it’s time for some change.
