About My Clients

If you struggle with anxiety, depression, trauma, difficulty managing stress or tense emotions, or would like to deep-dive into parts of your past you've overlooked, let's process together and build your inner toolkit to take control over your life.

My Background and Approach

I believe in a collaborative, Strengths-based, Psychodynamic approach that starts with searching for the root of what you're struggling with. Once we understand ourselves and our contexts better, we are more equipped to find resolutions or relief in the here-and-now. I strongly believe that we all have the inner resources it takes to gain control over our thoughts and emotions- we just need to unlock the toolkit and integrate it in our daily lives.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

Growth and healing is not linear and we will take things at your pace. My first and foremost priority is to help you feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable. I exude warmth, open-mindedness, non-judgment, and care from a genuine place.
