My passion as a psychotherapist is to come along side you as a "fellow traveler," enter into your story, and hold tensions with, and for you, as you navigate the brokenness, crises, challenges, and hurt of your heart, mind, and life. A favorite author and Psychoanalyst of mine says "when we wait in the unknown, transformation will occur." My hope and ambition is to wait and navigate the unknown with you, in order that together we can experience positive transformation and reconciliation.
While I definitely approach counseling through a multi-disciplinary, and multi-intervention framework; I do mostly come from the Psychoanalytic tradition, which places a heavy emphasis on the complexity of each individual's mind, and how that complexity relates and connects to the individual's story. I emphasize both the person-centered, and narrative approach with each client, understanding first and foremost that no two people are alike, and that the beauty of each individual's complexity is sacred, and ought to be navigated and explored with great care and competence.
The early sessions will focus mostly on me getting to know your story, your context, and building a strong therapeutic alliance. In later sessions we will begin to integrate interventions and strategies designed to help you identify incongruences in your identity and conscious framework. We will work together to uncover all that exists in your unconscious mind, and reveal those areas of your life that need to be processed, reconciled, and given hope and meaning.
As your counselor, I will commit to always holding hope for you, as you persevere in your therapeutic journey.
