Great to meet you!

Welcome :)

My practice is centered on a psychodynamic, attachment, and feminist perspective. My framework is grounded in trauma theory and centers on the strengths, resilience, expertise, and self-determination of those that I work with. I am attentive to the roles individuals, institutions, and systems play and the impact they may have on healing.

My approach to therapy

Creating a warm, safe, and attentive space for you to feel seen and heard fully — mind, body, and spirit. You can expect an experience where you are given opportunities to explore your inner world, feelings, thoughts, beliefs, values, desires and longings, and this will evolve through the first few sessions as we get to know one another.

What you can expect from me

I'm devoted to developing trust and safety in the therapeutic relationship and will meet my clients wherever they presently sit on the continuum of identity development, embodiment, and self-acceptance. I will support and challenge my clients as they find new ways to access their inner world & to approach their lives and the systems around them. I am deeply devoted to the empowerment of my clients and believe that therapy can be transformational once safety and trust is developed.
