How I Can Help
My approach to counseling uses an integrated theoretical process that honors the needs of each individual. By using evidence-based interventions tailored to meet the needs of each client, I strive to be a support while helping to create meaningful and lasting change for all.
I base my counseling philosophy on principles of Humanistic Psychology which calls for unconditional positive regard, empathy for all human conditions, and reliance on developing a healthy working alliance between myself and the client. I also believe that the lessons that we learn from the highs and lows we experience throughout time serve as a template for how we will process new experiences in the future. Helping to facilitate an insight-oriented process of understanding why we feel the way we do provides strength and comfort for self-compassion and attending to our hopes and dreams.
For some, sitting with the discomfort of the pain from their past is too difficult to discuss without experiencing the emotional overload that prevents us from moving forward I am grateful to be able to provide somatic experiencing and clinical hypnotherapy as a way of helping to resolve past traumas that prevent some from living life fully.
