Great to meet you!

My therapeutic style is warm, curious, and engaged. I strive to create a space where clients feel heard and respected. I balance compassionate, with thoughtful questions and reflections that help clients notice patterns and gain new perspectives. At times, I offer gentle challenges to help clients understand the patterns that shape their thoughts, emotions, and relationships. I believe that meaningful change happens when clients feel safe enough to explore their inner world while also developing practical tools for navigating daily life.

My approach to therapy

My approach to therapy is collaborative, relational, and insight-oriented. I draw from a trauma-informed perspective to help clients understand the patterns that shape their thoughts, emotions, and relationships.

What you can expect from me

The first session is an opportunity for us to get to know each other and begin understanding what brings you to therapy. We’ll talk about what’s been going on in your life, what you’re hoping for from therapy, and any questions or concerns you may have about the process.
