I'm an empathic, trauma-informed individual, couple, and family therapist. I believe in a reflective, wholistic approach to therapy, incorporating elements of a number of treatment models, from behavior-based to psychoanalytic, in order to meet each person's individual needs. I have also spent years practicing with families in foster care, and I currently supervise a group of therapists who practice therapy in child welfare at a non-profit agency. Additionally, I used to practice law, and I assume that that particular set of critical thinking skills comes into play in some unconscious way, for better or for worse.
