Great to meet you!

I am a dedicated and compassionate collaborator committed to helping you navigate life's challenges. My approach is warm, non-judgmental, and deeply empathetic. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by trauma, grief, or the daily stresses of life, I’m here to support and empower you.

A bit about my approach to therapy

Together, we'll work on building coping strategies, fostering resilience, and discovering the strength within you to reclaim your life. Like many of the great fine artist of our time, we will work together towards making the canvas of your life blossom. My integrative therapeutic approach includes Mindfulness, CBT, Psychodynamic, Trauma-based techniques and others, tailored to meet your unique individual needs.

What you can expect from our first session

My clients typically tell me they feel heard, seen, and understood within one session. As the rapport building stage takes place, my goal is to listen and allow you to tell your story. I encourage clients to take their time in sharing their story; I believe in a trust based relationship and going at your pace as you are comfortable. Mostly, clients tell me they feel as though they have found someone they can confide in, and feel they can share their inner world with.
