My Approach
I lead with empathy and curiosity to seek a rich understanding of each person I work with. My approach to therapy and coaching is grounded in exploring the following questions: what would your most authentic and meaningful life look like? what does success mean to you? In what areas of life do you feel most “you”, and in what places do you feel disconnected (from yourself or from others)? What barriers or uncertainties stand in the way of achieving your potential?
I will guide you to be deeply curious about your inner experiences, particularly the feelings and thoughts that you suspect might be holding you back from the life that you want. We will dip down into the experiences that are tough to sit with, and we will harness the energy that we find there to propel you into meaningful action. I believe that our hardest experiences are often related to our deepest desires.
This is not a quick process, nor is it linear. There will undoubtedly be some discomfort involved - that’s what indicates that growth is happening. I will challenge you. I’ve been known to ask questions that are hard to answer, and tough to sit with. I’ll use my own curiosity as a compass that lasers in on the meat of the issue. I’ll gently encourage you to step outside of your comfort zone in the directions that are related to your desires and goals. Everything we do will be in the service of expansion, integration, and freedom.
