Nobody knows your story, your history, or your lived experience better than you do—which means you are the expert in the room, and I’m here to learn your context directly from you without making assumptions. In my practice, I use an eclectic approach. I don’t believe in forcing anyone into a rigid, one-size-fits-all clinical box. Instead, I fluidly blend traditional talk therapy, creative arts, and a deep understanding of psychology to tailor our sessions to whatever you need right now. Some frameworks I draw commonly from include:

​

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

This is my primary framework. Anxiety and tough seasons often trick us into believing we have to "fix" or completely eliminate our difficult thoughts and feelings before we can move forward or to be happy. ACT flips this script. It’s a highly practical, action-oriented approach that teaches you concrete skills so you can navigate life with your anxiety or discomfort, rather than letting it control your choices. We focus on clarifying what you actually value, so you can build a life based on what matters to you instead of trying to avoid pain.

​

Narrative Therapy

The stories we tell ourselves about who we are (often shaped by our families, our culture, or our past struggles) can make us feel trapped or like we don't fit in. Narrative therapy is built entirely on the idea that the person is not the problem; the problem is the problem. Together, we look at the old narratives you've been carrying, question the expectations that are draining your energy, and help you rewrite your own story on your own terms.

​

Attachment-Based Therapy

We don’t love, communicate, or protect ourselves by accident—we learn how to do it from our earliest relationships. This framework looks at the relational blueprints you developed growing up. If you notice patterns of constantly fearing abandonment, pushing people away when things get close, or over-functioning to keep the peace in your adult relationships, attachment work helps us understand why.

 

Adlerian Therapy

Humans are deeply social beings, and we don’t live in a vacuum. This approach looks at how your unique upbringing, early family dynamics, and background shape how you view the world today. It focuses heavily on your drive for belonging, significance, and connection.

 

Music Therapy & Creative Arts Therapies

Because of my background in music therapy, I honor non-verbal processing, creativity, and meeting people beyond just words. Sometimes the heavy stuff doesn't fit neatly into a sentence, and having a space that allows for creative expression (music, art, play) makes all the difference.
