Individual Therapy
I work with individuals with a wide range of trauma histories, such as rape, sexual assault, childhood abuse, combat exposure, vehicle accidents, domestic violence, and identity-based trauma (e.g., racial trauma, hostility toward sexual orientation or gender identity). I also help clients address concerns that often accompany trauma, such as sleep difficulties, substance use, and relationship problems. I enjoy working with people from a wide variety of backgrounds and identities, including neurodiverse clients. My goal is to help my clients experience lasting recovery and live their lives in a way that is meaningful to them.
My Therapy Style
I am active and collaborative in therapy. I deeply value my clients' knowledge of themselves, and I am committed to helping them bring their full selves into our sessions. I work with my clients to set attainable therapy goals, create a plan to reach those goals, regularly discuss their progress, and make any adjustments to therapy that are needed to help them get what they need from treatment.
The approach I take is flexible based on clients' needs and preferences. For those with posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), I most often use Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). I am a rostered CPT provider, meaning that I have undergone intensive training and consultation in this approach and am included on the treatment developers' list of trained providers. I also offer other types of therapy depending on clients' needs, such as interpersonal therapy and prolonged exposure.
How to Request an Appointment
Therapy begins with scheduling a free, 15-minute phone consultation to see if I would be a good fit for you. You can request a consultation on my Contact page.
