My approach is oriented towards helping clients make choices and relate to others in ways that reinforce their feelings of autonomy, fulfillment, and peace. We engage to explore current situations and the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, and then develop strategies to help better manage situations or make decisions. Strategies we will explore may include immediate actions to help manage today's concerns, and longer-term strategies to build resilience when facing ongoing challenges or crises. I work with clients to develop new ways of interpreting difficulties, understanding others, and communicating that are in line with their own values and hopes. I specialize in working with clients struggling with self-esteem, stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, vicarious trauma, relationships, adjustment issues, grief, or problems at school and at work. I support decision-making around college, graduate school, and career paths. I work with children, adolescents and adults, including children struggling with their parents' separation or divorce. My style is sympathetic, facilitative, and client-driven. I help guide clients through a process of setting their own therapy objectives, and follow their lead in therapy sessions, asking questions or giving feedback when appropriate. I am flexible and ready to adjust to changing goals for therapy and new life situations
