Great to meet you!
My work draws on insight-oriented and mindfulness-based approaches. More than anything, it is relational. I take seriously the privilege of being invited into your inner world, and I hold that responsibility with care.

My approach to therapy
I will meet you wherever you are. Whatever you are carrying, I will be with you in it fully, with compassion and without judgment, as we find our way back to a sense of home within yourself.
What you can expect from me
My style is direct, warm, and human. I will lead with empathy so you can meet me with openness, co-creating a space that's safe for vulnerability to uncover the patterns and dynamics that no longer serve you, and bring forth insight and real change.
