My approach to therapy is respectful and collaborative, where client and therapist work together to understand the problems with which the client is struggling. Creating a safe environment is paramount. I strive for a balance between allowing time and space to understand problems, and challenging clients step outside of habitual patterns of thought and behavior. Sometimes the process is task oriented focusing on behaviors and goals worked on outside of therapy. Other times we may  focus on what is arising in the session. Therapy is tailored to each individual and the issues being addressed.  I use a variety of methods drawn primarily from the following modalities:                                                                                
                                              Internal Family Systems (IFS)
                                        Mindfulness
                                        Body-Centered Psychotherapy
                                        Buddhist Psychology
                                                                                      Psychodynamic Therapy
                                                                                      Mindful Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (MCBT) 
                                                                                      EMDR
