About My Clients
My areas of expertise include working with trauma/abuse survivors, young adults, college students, immigrants, neurodivergent, multicultural, and LGBTQIA+ individuals struggling with anxiety/panic disorders, depression, childhood trauma, family dynamics, identity exploration, and relationship issues. With couples, I draw from the Gottman Method, aiming to strengthen intimacy, trust and communication.
My Background and Approach
Anxiety, trauma, painful experiences, and the expectations we carry can not only impact our sense of self, but leave us feeling disconnected from the world around us. Whether you're navigating a break-up, struggling with anxiety, processing trauma or rediscovering your voice, I offer a safe space where you can exhale and explore your concerns with compassion, not judgment. My approach to therapy is holistic, drawing from multiple evidence-based practices and tailoring our work to meet your unique needs. I place great emphasis on the mind-body connection and weave somatic techniques into my practice, such as breath-work and guided meditations. The idea is to calm the nervous system and create a safe environment for you to reconnect with your mind, body, and spirit. My style is warm, curious, and honest. I won't simply sit back and nod; I will gently challenge you when it serves your growth, celebrate your progress, and walk alongside you every step of the way.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that human beings are incredibly resilient, even when life has convinced them otherwise. No matter how long you’ve struggled with anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship challenges, or painful life experiences, I don’t believe you are “broken.” Many of the ways we cope were developed to help us survive at one point in our lives. Together, we can better understand those patterns, keep the ones that still serve you, and replace the ones that no longer do. As both a therapist and someone who has experienced anxiety firsthand, I know how exhausting it can feel when your mind seems to be working against you. Therapy helped me understand myself with more compassion instead of criticism, and that experience continues to shape the way I work with my clients.
