Great to meet you!

My approach to therapy is centered around understanding and addressing the unique needs of each individual. I emphasize creating a supportive and non-judgmental environment where clients feel safe to explore their thoughts and emotions. Ultimately, my goal is to empower clients to develop healthier coping strategies and achieve meaningful change in their lives. I am trained in EMDR. I specialize in complex trauma and working with the LGBTQ community.

My approach to therapy

I work with clients through a compassionate and tailored approach, emphasizing a deep understanding of their unique experiences and needs. I specialize in supporting individuals with complex trauma, utilizing EMDR to help heal from traumatic experiences. Additionally, I have expertise in working with transgender patients, focusing on affirming their identities. I am currently pursuing a certification in sex therapy to further support clients with their sexual health and relational concerns

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to take away a deeper understanding of themselves and their experiences from sessions with me. I focus on creating a supportive and safe environment where clients feel validated and heard. Goals typically include developing effective coping strategies for managing trauma and anxiety, enhancing self-awareness, and building resilience. Clients also work towards personal growth and healing, with interventions aimed at addressing issues such as identity and relational concerns.
