Great to meet you!

I try and create an environment of warmth by being genuine and inviting, creating an atmosphere of comfort and ease. My intent is to be affirming through my words and actions, hoping to uplift and fostering a sense of validation and encouragement. My intent is to provide a safe and secure environment where my clients people feel secure, allowing for vulnerability and open expression. My goal is to recognize and nurturing individual strengths, inspiring confidence and self-belief.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I use a person-centered, strengths-based approach, creating a safe, affirming environment where clients feel heard and valued. I aim to empower, and focus on identifying and building upon strengths, encouraging self-discovery and personal growth. The therapeutic process involves collaborative goal-setting, emphasizing the client's agency in their own journey. Acceptance is a central role, fostering a non-judgmental space where clients feel comfortable exploring their thoughts and emotions.

What you can expect from our first session

Clients can expect to gain a heightened sense of self-awareness, self-acceptance, and empowerment, while experiencing a deepened understanding of their strengths and capabilities, fostering increased confidence and resilience. The goal of the therapeutic relationship is to provide a safe space for exploring and processing emotions, leading to enhanced emotional well-being. Clients can also develop practical tools and strategies, equipping clients with the skills to navigate personal concerns.
