Treatment ApproachI practice integrative psychology, an approach which is awareness-based, insight-oriented, and goal-focused. I find the greatest sense of well-being and healing comes from living a life of presence, vulnerability, and awareness. I offer education around trauma, and skills-based approaches to dealing with difficult circumstances in life. This includes mindfulness, self-compassion, and self-awareness to bolster the well-being of individuals, couples, and thus the whole family.
