Therapy Approach
I see clients as the experts on their lives and I strive to partner with my clients to support their growth in self-awareness, self-compassion and realization of their strengths and resiliency. My approach to therapy is greatly influenced by my training as a counseling psychologist; I see understanding context as integral to understanding our experiences of social identities and the dynamics of individual and community wellbeing. The Relational-Cultural theory informs my holistic conceptualization of client experiences and I lean on the integration of CBT and ACT-based interventions to support clients' movement toward self-identified growth.
Supervision Approach
I approach supervision through the lens of the developmental model to help guide a collaborative focus on professional and clinical growth. I strive to facilitate a trusting relationship in which supervisees can explore, gain awareness and confidence, and find their voice as they develop and integrate their professional identity.
