My theoretical orientation can be described as eclectic, using techniques from various models of therapy as deemed appropriate with the current treatment and client.

My deep belief, rooted in both my practice as a therapist and in my experience healing my own trauma, is that our brains and bodies have the innate ability to heal from trauma when provided with a safe enough space to connect to and experience our internal world. As human beings, we are neurobiologically wired to be in relationships with others. For that reason, I have also learned that a key aspect of trauma recovery involves being in the presence of someone who can create safety and hold space...

Perhaps you feel like an imposter because you have learned that it is easier to hide your true self or because you haven't figured out who you really are.

Or, perhaps, you simply feel that something is missing, and you either don't know what it is or don't know how to find it. I’ve practiced for over 15 years and worked wit...
