About My Clients

I work with a variety of clients to navigate challenges, foster self-growth, and develop new insights into life. Active listening will be a big part of our work together, and I am a good listener. I care about your most presenting concern and the work continues when we tackle our first challenge. I am here to guide your learning in emotional growth and help you become an independent learner of your needs.

My Background and Approach

My main orientation includes EMDR, IFS, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and social justice. I also use solution-focused techniques for short-term changes.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that therapy serves a similar function as education: it nurtures abilities, raises self-awareness, and maintains the connection with human nature. We may all have been in school for education and career goals (and for a really long time), but how much do we learn in school about our emotions and feelings? Therefore, I aim to provide an experience that brings out curiosity inwards and outwards.
