About My Clients

My Background and Approach

My practice is significantly grounded in the therapeutic relationship, recognizing and nurturing your inner capacity for healing and well-being. My approach is strength-based, rooted in trauma theory, and acknowledges the interrelatedness of all aspects of self, family systems, and cultural influences. With training in Somatic Experiencing and EMDR, I integrate these approaches to honor the mind-body-soul connection. Throughout my career, I have worked in various settings, addressing complex issues.
