Great to meet you!

Grief can be an isolating experience for people pleasers. The constant desire to please others adds a unique dimension to the tasks faced during a grief process, leading individuals to disregard their needs and emotions. We will embark on a compassionate, nonjudgmental narrative approach to the tasks of grief, where you can liberate yourself from the weight of pain and restore balance to you—mind, body, and spirit—one step at a time, fostering healthy relationships and enhancing self-advocacy.

My approach to therapy

In each session, I embody values of unconditional acceptance, curiosity, nonjudgment, and playfulness. I specialize in providing an integrative, holistic, and strengths-based approach to therapy, tailored to your unique needs. Your therapy care plan will use evidence-based interventions from mindfulness-based CBT and DBT, fostering resilience and well-being.

What you can expect from me

After our work together, clients often report a renewed sense of peace, resilience in the face of life's challenges, and rediscovered joy in their lives. Whether you're grieving the loss of a loved one, coping with trauma, or navigating a significant life change, taking a step towards healing is an act of self-care. Reach out to me or another therapist today.
