My approach to therapy utilizes a narrative framework to examine what stories or perspectives are creating your reality. We can collaboratively explore which narratives feel most appropriate to prioritize, based on factors like which ones are most distressing, interesting, or impactful. Some common narratives relate to depression, anxiety, trauma, transgenerational issues, acculturation, and life transitions.

Understanding a narrative that gives you strength can give you the knowledge to reinforce that presence in your life. Understanding a narrative that causes you strife, gives you an understanding of where your troubles are coming from, allowing you to choose to act and perceive otherwise. Together, we can intentionally build your framework of narratives.

Therapy can benefit from an attitude of kindness and curiosity. Approaching yourself in a nonjudgmental and open manner can make it easier to increase your understanding of self.

This understanding can create comfort and/or create grounds to make change.
