About My Clients

Common themes I see come up in session include complex trauma, attachment wounds, self-esteem and self re-discovery, depression, anxiety, and emotional disconnect. Whatever your goals are in therapy, I aim to provide you with the space to uncover your natural and innate resiliency and skills.

My Background and Approach

I use an existential, narrative philosophy to inspire meaning-making, insight exploration and curiosity. Using a person-centered and holistic approach, I collaborate with my clients to create a safe place for self-discovery. Working through a trauma-informed lens, we will strengthen the skills you need to center your nervous system while re-exploring your relationship with yourself. During our sessions, we will incorporate elements of mindfulness, body work, and DBT skills as well as narrative techniques and parts work. I am currently being trained in EMDR and will soon be able to offer this additional service for my clients. Above all, I believe the most important aspect of therapy is the relationship we will cultivate together in session. I value the concepts of authenticity, safety and client autonomy in the therapy space. We will always go at your own pace.
