Collaborative and Engaging Psychotherapy

I use a depth-oriented treatment approach, primarily drawing from psychoanalytic theory. That means in my work I pay attention to one’s personality, character structure, mental models, and emotional expression. All of these things come together to help an individual make sense of and navigate their world; especially because emotions are meant to inform and be utilized, not just regulated. Similarly, I draw from philosophy and the humanities because they help emphasize how we as clinicians should appreciate the lived experience of patients.

Trainings that I have completed include:

  • Enactive Trauma Therapy through Ellert Nijenhuis, PhD

  • Coherence Therapy

  • Psychological First-Aid through John Hopkins University
