About My Clients
Life can be hard. Especially when you don't have a clear sense of what to do about it. Maybe you know something is just not working in your relationships, work, or school. Maybe you feel depressed or anxious. Perhaps ADHD is impacting your life. Maybe you are a parent whose adolescent child is just not moving forward like you know they can. You may have tried therapy in the past but didn't get much out of it.
My Background and Approach
Clients describe me as warm, real, honest, and wise. My background in social work, career counseling, wilderness guiding, and ceremonial rites of passage inform my approach as a therapist and coach. I use a variety of evidence-based approaches, including Internal Family Systems therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness. I especially enjoy working with men and young adults.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I have seen, through both personal and professional experience, that even the most difficult things about us have something important to say. I know it can feel overwhelming sometimes and that you may just want to be rid of whatever is holding you back. Rather than try to stuff it down or push it away, there is a way to come to a greater understanding of these challenging parts of you. It may seem strange, but the more we are able to accept the difficult parts of us the less control they have - and we are free to be the whole, healthy, and powerful people we naturally are.
