My Approach

Therapy at Inner Journey is not one-size-fits-all. It never has been.

​

Every client who walks through the door — or logs on — is dealing with something different. Different history, different patterns, different goals. A rigid formula doesn't serve that. So I don't use one.

​

My approach starts with you. What you're carrying, how you got here, and what you actually need to move forward. From there, I adapt — drawing on evidence-based methods that have real research behind them, and applying them in a way that fits your specific situation rather than forcing your situation to fit a method.

​

I work from a foundation that includes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), the Gottman Method for couples work, trauma-focused approaches, and Brainspotting for clients who need to work at a deeper level than talk therapy alone can reach. Sessions are structured enough to make progress but flexible enough to meet you where you are.

​

What stays consistent across every session is this: honesty, directness, and genuine investment in your growth. You won't be handed a list of coping skills and sent on your way. You'll be challenged, supported, and held accountable — because that's what actually creates lasting change.

​

I believe insight without action is just awareness. The goal here isn't to help you understand your patterns. It's to help you break them.
