What you can expect to get out of therapy depends largely on your reasons for seeking out therapy. Whatever is going on, therapy can help you by providing support, clarity, confidence, and relief.

Generally speaking, a good time to seek therapy is when you feel stuck, or when advice and support from family and friends is not enough. If you are suffering from any issues that are interfering with your normal routine, occupational (or academic) functioning, family, friends or social activities, you might benefit from therapy.

Really good question! There was a time when therapists subscribed to one particular kind of therapy: Cognitive Behavioral, Client-Centered, Jungian, Narrative and so on… I find these to be limiting. We are complex individuals with different strengths and needs. In my practice, we will identify your strengths and use those as building blocks to use any modality that fits best for you. In general, I use a strength-based model incorporating organic and holistic tools to help you move towards your goals. I also believe in treatment being collaborative, utilizing Motivational Interviewing to help you achieve your goals and identify the dreams you have yet to have. If you have specific questions about my education, skills or training, please feel free to ask.
