After initial sessions you can expect to have a good idea of what it is like to work with me as a person, as well as the approach(es) we will be using for your specific plan of care. As we make progress, expect your goals and needs to change as your initial issues begin to improve and underlying issues begin to surface, this is when we get into the deeper and typically more meaningful work. At these middle stages of therapy are when you will also be feeling much more empowered and clear about what you are doing in life to meet your goals. As we near the completion of your goals, much of what we will do in sessions will fall under maintenance and resolving symptom relapse, this is also a time in which we can discuss other issues you've had that weren't priorities to begin with.

I mostly utilize Acceptance & Commitment Therapy and Internal Family Systems, with blends of nondual and existential philosophy serving as the foundation for our work. Teaching people these kinds of mindfulness and awareness-oriented skills and concepts goes a long way towards unlocking the deeper healing, and there are likely a handful a skills that will stick with you from the beginning of therapy through the rest of your life. Being a true generalist as I am, I do pride myself on being extremely well read and well versed in a plethora of therapeutic approaches, and can tailor every aspect of therapy to meet your needs.
