Therapeutic Services

I have fifteen years of experience as a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker, meeting a wide range of presentations including; anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and family of origin difficulties, and navigating life transitions. I understand individuals in the multiple contexts they are influenced by and exist within. I am an integrative therapist; attuning to the person that is in front of me, and enriching our work together with a variety of modalities including Internal Family Systems, the Developmental Model of Couples Therapy, Emotionally Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness as well as other somatic practices.

I specialize in Couples Therapy; receiving certification at Relationships Australia in 2010 as well as additional certification in the Developmental Model of Couples Therapy. I utilize a psychodynamic, attachment-based lens to guide understanding and process-oriented interventions to promote functioning and growth within relationships. I am an affirming therapist who has experience in working with a variety of orientations.

As a systems-oriented therapist, I understand issues in the context of relationships and incorporate Systemic Family Therapy to promote more effective communication and boundaries within families and the systems they exist within. I have experience working with complex trauma, sibling conflict, estrangement, and the challenges associated with blended families, among other presentations.
