About My Clients

I work with adults who have experienced trauma and/or are feeling that something is missing from their lives. I help people experiencing a wide range of challenges including depression, anxiety, grief/loss, interpersonal/relational struggles, low self esteem and self worth, parenting challenges, substance abuse, and eating disorders. I aim to support my client's in understanding the patterns that do not serve them and help them in accessing their emotions, their resilience, and their vitality.

My Background and Approach

From a young age, I’ve been deeply attuned to the emotions of others, feeling a natural calling to be with others during times of suffering. This empathy fuels my commitment to helping clients navigate their challenges through a variety of therapeutic approaches. I utilize Attachment therapy, Psychodynamic talk therapy/depth psychology , Trauma work utilizing somatic therapy and mindfulness, Parenting consultation, Eye movement desensitization therapy (EMDR) Internal family Systems (IFS), Narrative therapy, and Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that every journey is unique and therapy is not a one size fits all. I’m here to walk alongside you as you unpack your symptoms, uncover your strength and find your voice. Let’s work together to help you move forward in a meaningful way.
