About My Clients
You may find yourself wondering, “How can I stop replaying past hurts in every relationship?” or “Why does this feel so hard for me?” You might feel overwhelmed by emotions or completely numb to them. These experiences are invitations for understanding. When we experience shame, neglect, or invalidation, we can lose that connection, not only with others, but with ourselves. I help people heal from relational trauma and reconnect with their inherent value.
My Background and Approach
Many therapists are trained to remain neutral, to act as a “blank slate.” While this can create certain kinds of safety, it can also make it difficult to reach the deeper, more meaningful layers of healing. My approach is different. I bring my self into the room. Talking with someone who truly listens, feels, and connects with you can be transformative. I believe the relationship we build together in therapy isn’t just part of the healing process, it’s where healing can truly begin. Clients who work with me can leave behind unwanted behaviors, dismantle deeply held negative self-beliefs, heal unmet childhood needs, and reconnect with the parts of themselves that know their worth. My therapeutic approach is grounded in a relational and person-centered framework. I draw from a range of evidence-based modalities to meet the unique needs of each client.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Just about every therapist profile is going to offer a warm, empathetic approach in their specialty area. My practice and the method of the therapy that I offer is built upon a lifetime of personal experience with trauma and bringing that part of myself into the relationship. By doing this, we get to model something invaluable but rare for those who have experienced trauma; a boundaried relationship that fosters attachment, safety, autonomy and care.
