Hi there, I'm Chevvy!

We are all a sum of our thoughts, emotions, and physiology. I use all three to understand you and to help develop your understanding of yourself. In addition to helping you develop the relationship you have with yourself, I aim to help you develop connection, understanding, and harmony in your relationships with others.

My focus

I work with individual women, men, and teens looking to understand and improve the relationship they have with themselves and others. Through a more developed understanding of the self, we can all experience improved relationships with others. I do encourage actions to be taken following the development of insight and discovery.

My approach

I integrate somatic experiencing, cognitive behavioral, emotionally focused, humanistic, behavioral, and solution-focused approaches to support your growth and healing.

My communication style

My communication style is non-judgmental, calming, encouraging, understanding, curious, and non-pathologizing.

My journey to mental healthcare

As a child, I used to watch the sitcom "Growing Pains," and the father in the show was a psychiatrist who provided talk therapy, which led me to become more interested in the profession. Being a therapist allows my curiosity about people to be exercised and taps into the part of me that really wants to be helpful and supportive.

My goals for you

I prefer clients to establish their own goals but do suggest and encourage improvements in behaviors when needed for positive change.

Our first session

During our initial meeting, I will be looking to get to know you and what led you to seek support, with an exploration of the social circumstances that impact your view of self and everyday functioning.
