I am eclectic in my use of therapeutic approaches, meaning I like to use elements from several based on needs and qualities of my client.

The main ones I draw from are:

Person-Centered / Rogerian:
A warm, nonjudgmental approach where you set the pace and we focus on creating safety so you can reconnect with your own inner wisdom.

ACT (Acceptance & Commitment Therapy):
Helps you make space for difficult thoughts and feelings while taking meaningful action aligned with your values.

DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy):
Teaches practical skills to regulate intense emotions, tolerate stress, and communicate more effectively.

CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy):
Identifies and gently challenges unhelpful thought patterns that fuel anxiety, depression, and self-criticism.

Narrative Therapy:
Explores the stories you’ve absorbed about yourself and helps you reshape them in more accurate and compassionate ways.

Existential Therapy:
Invites reflection on purpose, identity, freedom, and meaning so you can live more intentionally and authentically.

Mindfulness & Compassion-Based Approaches:
Build awareness of your inner experience while softening self-judgment and strengthening emotional resilience.

Yogic Integration:
Incorporates breathwork, body awareness, and layered mind-body wisdom to support nervous system regulation and promote a sense of connectedness and safety.

*I am currently interested in and learning more about “parts work” which aims to better understand and care for the different “parts” of the self (like the inner critic, perfectionist, or anxious protector) so they don’t have to fight for control and you can feel more integrated and self-trusting.
