Great to meet you!

As a therapist deeply committed to both my personal and professional growth, I believe that the process of healing is ongoing. I continue to engage in my own therapeutic work, which allows me to offer an authentic and empathetic presence as I support clients through their healing journeys. I understand that growth often requires both deep self-reflection and a safe, supportive relationship, and I bring this awareness into my work with clients.

A bit about my approach to therapy

As a trauma-informed clinician, I specialize in helping individuals process and heal from the effects of complex trauma. With extensive experience working with teens, young adults, and families, I am committed to providing a supportive environment where clients can explore and overcome challenges stemming from past experiences.

What you can expect from our first session

Specializing in attachment-focused therapies, I help individuals understand how early relational experiences shape their current patterns of behavior, emotional responses, and relationships. I integrate Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to support clients in processing trauma, alleviating distressing memories, and promoting emotional regulation. Client's can expect to be supported, gently challenged and always seen for who they are.
