Each service is tailored to your individual goals, with a focus on creating a supportive and transparent therapeutic experience.
My Services:
Consultation
Begin with a free 15–20 minute phone consultation to discuss your questions, concerns, and therapy goals. This initial conversation helps ensure a good therapist-client fit and gives you clarity on how the practice can support your needs.
Individual Therapy
Individual therapy sessions are tailored using an integrative approach that blends CBT, DBT, ACT, psychodynamic theory, and mindfulness practices. Sessions provide a safe, open, and supportive space to work toward your goals, whether short-term or long-term, with flexible scheduling based on your needs.
Couples Therapy
Couples therapy offers a structured and supportive environment to explore relationship dynamics and challenges. Using Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) and the Gottman Method, sessions focus on improving communication, understanding emotions, and strengthening connection and relationship health.
