Individual Depth Psychotherapy Can…

• Decrease symptoms of mental health disorders such as anxiety and depression

• Provide a safe, culturally sensitive, and inclusive space for individuals to tell their stories and process their experiences and trauma without judgement

• Improve self-esteem and help individuals cultivate self-love so they feel valuable not for what they do, but for who they are

• Increase an individual’s understanding of how family of origin issues may have created patterns that lead to dissatisfaction in relationships, and teach them how to break those patterns and develop healthy boundaries

• Increase a person’s insight into past experiences to develop more self-awareness, self-compassion, and self-forgiveness

• Help clients reconnect with and reparent their inner child

• Quiet the voices of shame, fear, and guilt

• Lead to more authentic and whole-hearted living

• Help clients find new ways of thinking and being

• Provide support with life transitions, difficult times, and daily stress

• Decrease codependency and lead to more secure attachment

Family/Parent-Child Relationship Therapy Can…

• Help families deepen their connection with each other without sacrificing the autonomy of each individual.

• Help families reduce conflict by increasing communication skills of each family member and helping each family member feel heard and valued

• Create a more nurturing environment where each person can increase their own self-esteem

• Support parents by teaching them parenting skills.

• Strengthen parent/child relationships and decrease conflict within those relationships by teaching parents and children emotional regulation techniques and empathy building

Common Populations I Work With:

• Women seeking to understand their attachment styles, heal attachment wounds, and increase healthy relationships.

• Adults who use people-pleasing, perfectionism, and conflict avoidance as coping strategies for anxiety and want to understand where their anxiety and coping strategies originated, learn to set boundaries, access suppressed emotions and self-soothe, and increase self-confidence and self-worth.

• Teens (and their parents) struggling with anxiety, depression, or feeling like they don’t belong who want to learn to challenge unhelpful thoughts leading to painful feelings and increase self-esteem and distress tolerance. 

• Clients with a desire to process trauma that is impacting their daily lives.

“The curious paradox is that when I accept myself, just as I am, then I can change.”
