I am at my best when working with individuals and couples that want balance; balance between others and themselves but also within themselves. Folks that want to explore their values and enhance their sense of self and I work well together. People that want to work with me do so because I am an alternative friendly and knowledgeable therapist with a strong background in working with those that experience PTSD, Dissociative disorders and Healthy Multiplicity from traumatic experiences.
Clients that identify as "straight but alternative", "LGBTQIA+" as well as those choosing non traditional relationship structures such as Polyamory, ENM, blended families, and "swingers" all will find me informed by my study and experiences so I can help without my client having to educate me on the basics of these areas. I work from a Relational Multicultural perspective as well as Internal Family Systems (IFS) Collaborative Counseling (aka Ego Analytical) approaches to help folks. My ability to add Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing or Gestalt tools can enhance one's experience of therapy with me. One of my specialties is also helping family members understand their loved ones life transitions and choices through communication and boundary work.
