“We are like islands in the sea, separate on the surface but connected in the deep.”
― William James
People reach out to a psychologist for various reasons. Sometimes, it is due to a crisis, or a traumatic experience. Often is is because of struggles with depression or anxiety, difficult relationships, or challenging life transitions. And sometimes, people are looking to do deeper work and are interested in finding ways to live more meaningful, fuller, and happier lives.
My work is both evidence-based and holistic, utilizing a variety of strategies like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), psychodynamic therapy, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (SP), Psychedelic Somatic Interactional Therapy (PSIP), mindfulness, and attachment-based therapies.
I have worked with people with a variety of needs and conditions, but I never worked with you! As a psychologist, I am only an expert in psychological processes, but it is you who are the expert of the content of your life. Therefore, my work with you will be mutual and interactive, and tailored to your unique needs and circumstances.
“People have a fundamental need for transformation. We are wired for growth and healing. And we are wired for self righting and resuming impeded growth. We have a need for the expansion and liberation of the self, the letting down of defensive barriers and the dismantling of the false self. We are shaped by a deep desire to be known, seen and recognized, as we strive to come into contact with parts of ourselves that are frozen.”
