About My Clients

I work with individuals from all walks of life, offering therapy grounded in over 15 years of experience in the mental health field. With national and international training in Gestalt psychotherapy, I support clients navigating anxiety, trauma, relationships, identity, and life transitions. My approach centers honest dialogue, deep presence, and respect for each person's unique story.

My Background and Approach

My approach is relational, experiential, and grounded in the belief that healing happens through presence and connection. Drawing from Gestalt psychotherapy, I support clients in exploring the here and now- how past experiences show up in current patterns, emotions, and relationships. I integrate body awareness, mindfulness, and creative process when appropriate, always attune to your pace and needs. My work is trauma-informed, LGBTQ+affirming, and culturally sensitive. I welcome the complexity and uniqueness each client brings, and I'm committed to create safe, collaborative space where your full self is seen and supported. Through our work, we'll deepen self-awareness, build emotional resilience, and open the possibility for meaningful, lasting change.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe in the resilience of the human spirit and our innate capacity to grow, even through pain and uncertainty. I value honesty, curiosity, and the courage it takes to show up as we are. As a therapist, I strive to meet each person with compassion, presence, and openness. Outside the therapy room, I'm drawn to creativity, nature, and meaningful conversations. I enjoy writing, paintings, learning about different cultures, and reflecting on the deeper questions of life. I am continually inspired by the beauty of human connection and the ways we find meaning and strength, even in difficult times. My personal and professional journey has taught me that healing isn't about fixing what's broken- it's about reconnecting with who we are, and learning to hold ourselves with care.
