I studied attachment theory and also Dan Siegel's work on interpersonal neurobiology: http://www.drdansiegel.com/about/interpersonal_neurobiology/ which I integrate into my work.  I trust in my ability to create safe relationships with them in which they can explore the thoughts, beliefs and emotions they have not been able to access on their own.  My family is an interracial family, so I also have in-depth knowledge of historical/racial trauma, as well as lived experience as someone outside of privilege in many ways.

Consultation for Therapists on Trauma: Yes
Psychopharmacology: No
Practice Statement: 

I BELIEVE: 1) It is in the context of relationship that we make the deepest change. 2) We grow and excel in an environment with just the right amount of support & challenge. 3) We must feel understood-by ourselves, yes, and often by another--before we can make change. 4) Engaging in our passions make us come alive. These four core beliefs guide my work as a psychologist, life coach, author, radio host, and performer. Working collaboratively and fostering safe spaces, together we can increase awareness and create experiences that allow our best selves to emerge.

First, I listen deeply and whole heartedly. I then shuttle between what I hear you saying is happening now and how you want your life to be different. As you try new behaviors, I help with 1) Increasing helpful thoughts and behaviors--and reducing unhelpful ones, and 2) Celebrating successes.

While I offer collaborative, integrative individual and couple psychotherapy, one of my favorite parts of my workweek is Tuesday night Group Psychotherapy for Men and Women.
