  • Only if it serves your growth. Therapy is about moving forward—not staying stuck in old stories.

  • After nearly two decades as a therapist, I’ve chosen an “eclectic” approach. Non-judgment and genuineness (humanistic) are foundational. Then, in a nutshell, I pull in parts and theories from vario

    us “theoretical orientations,” such as IFS (internal family systems), Psychodynamic, CBT (cognitive

    behavioral therapy), DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy), ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy), and IPT (interpersonal therapy). I’m a trauma-informed therapist.

  • I am not on any insurance panels. I can provide you with a superbill (receipt) upon request.

  • Coaching focuses on enhancement, building skills and strategies (think sports coach on the sidelines), whereas therapy focuses on healing (diagnosis and treatment). Therapy is regulated healthcare (a professional has to meet state-mandated educational and experience requirements, acquire their license, and then maintain that license in good standing.)
