Psychology/Mental Health

My specific training is in Psychodynamic Social Work. This is a theory that incorporates elements of psychoanalysis and social work concepts together. It’s a fancy term that means, the goal for our sessions together is for you to gain a greater insight into who you are and why you do what you do. This training means that the lens I view my clients through has more of an emphasis on how your current presenting symptoms have a greater meaning beyond what they appear to be, based on your personal history, trauma, and life experiences. The benefit of this approach helps to examine unresolved conflicts that reside in the unconscious mind and their associated symptoms that arise and manifest in your day-to-day lives.

I also have had a long-time interest in Jungian Depth Psychology and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. In the future, I will be offering sessions more focused on the concepts within these two bodies of work. If you have any interest in having our sessions focus more on the subconscious mind, dream interpretation, mindfulness, and emotional regulation techniques, please let me know and we can talk more about these concepts in our next session and incorporate them as you see fit.

However, as always, I am here to meet you where you’re at!

Whether that’s a supportive session where you need to talk about a recent triggering event, or a brainstorming session focusing more on the life goals you’re aiming at.

I am here to meet your needs whatever those may be.
