My Approach to Helping
I am a licensed psychologist in TX, WA, and I hold a PSYPACT certificate that provides the authority to practice virtually in 42 states. I have many years of experience treating a wide range of presenting concerns including depression, anxiety, OCD, grief, relationship dilemmas, challenges with life transitions, identity development and exploration, and working through past traumas. My areas of specialty include eating disorders and couples work. I see therapy as a collaborative process. Together we will identify and establish your goals for treatment, and work to bring you to where you feel more positively.
Choosing to pursue psychotherapy can be a scary and vulnerable experience. If you’re new to the psychotherapy process, you can expect it to feel challenging and effortful; however, the goal is for you to also feel more positive, well, and a sense of transformation and relief. I see therapy as a collaborative process. Together we will identify and establish your goals for treatment, cultivate a safe and healing space, and work to bring you to where you feel more positively.
My therapeutic approach is both integrative and interpersonal. This approach focuses on developing greater understanding of emotions, exploring and recognizing patterns within relationships and behaviors, and learning to utilize emotional and relational insight to develop skills to take more effective action moving forward. My goal is to provide a healing and therapeutic space for you to process and explore your feelings, and develop skills to feel more effective and well in your everyday experience.
