Therapeutic Approach

 

As a Certified Imago Relationship Therapist I rely most heavily on the theory and practices of Imago Relationship Therapy developed by Helen Hunt, Ph.D and Harville Hendrix, Ph.D. Imago Relationship Therapy is a highly effective form of relationship and couples therapy. It is helpful for new couples, those who have been together for years, business relationships, family relationships, friendships, and more. 

I also draw upon the following therapeutic approaches: 

 

Imago

Anti-Oppressive

Social Justice

Coaching

Compassion Focused

Culturally Sensitive

Family / Marital

Feminist

Mindfulness-Based (MBCT)

Somatic

Strength-Based

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) 

Ancestral

​

I am committed to life-long abolitionist work and social justice. I acknowledge privilege and power dynamics in a society built upon dominance and a false hierarchy of human value. I work to mitigate this and the inherent power imbalance in the therapeutic relationship through transparency, open-dialogue and creating a positive therapeutic alliance.
