Therapeutic Approach

My approach emphasizes a solid therapeutic relationship, empathy, active listening, empowerment, and collaboration. We often work on recognizing what agency a client has and what the client can do with that agency. 

The therapeutic approaches I focus on are Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Existential Therapy, and Mindfulness. 

As a therapist, my job is to facilitate an environment best suited for your needs by using a combination of those therapy approaches. Therapy is not a one size fits all approach, and every person’s reason for starting therapy is unique to them in some way. Clients also have control over that environment. Clients are often welcome to reflect on therapy sessions and express their desire to do something differently. 

I value diversity and culturalism. Clients of all backgrounds are welcome!

I currently offer psychotherapy services through FairSky Foundation, my therapy practice. Sessions are scheduled and billed through FairSky Foundation.

All sessions are 50 minutes and can be billed through insurance or paid out of pocket. 

I offer all sessions over Zoom, which is HIPAA-compliant.
