All of us sometimes need help recognizing how we feel, what we want, and what we need. Then we may need to really communicating that in a way that matters to ourselves and the important people around us.

My Approach

My counseling style is based on theories from attachment and family systems, and I mostly use techniques from solution-focused and cognitive behavioral therapy. That means that therapy can start by understanding how someone feels, thinks, or acts. Then I help with problem-solving and exploring identity, autonomy, pleasure, and wonder.

My Education

  while working as a bookseller in Village Books.
