Therapeutic Philosophy & Approach

I am considered an integrative psychotherapist. This means that I am trained in a variety of modalities and will draw on specific interventions depending on the client’s needs.

I am most philosophically aligned with the related schools of Humanistic Psychotherapy and Existential Psychotherapy. Humanistic Psychotherapy is a holistic approach that focuses on self-exploration, personal growth, and reaching our potential. Existential Psychotherapy is very similar and emphasizes freedom, personal choice, and creating meaning in our lives.

On a practical level, clients and I often explore these themes using techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). ACT is a type of cognitive behavioral therapy. Among other things, ACT guides us to identify our true personal values; get healthy distance from our thoughts through mindfulness practices; increase our psychological flexibility over time; and move toward goals that are in alignment with what we really need and want.
