Great to meet you!

I bring a strong systemic lens, helping clients see how larger patterns influence their lives and relationships.

Even in individual therapy, I consider the broader context—family, culture, and life dynamics.

I’m thoughtful, direct, and committed to creating a space where all perspectives are respected.

I have experience working with complex family systems, trauma, and relational challenges.

I view therapy as a collaborative process where we work together toward lasting, meaningful change.

My approach to therapy

My approach is grounded in systemic thinking, meaning I look at how relationships and environments shape our experiences.

This applies to individuals, couples, and families—I don’t see problem stories in isolation.

I draw from structural, strategic, and attachment-based models to understand patterns and promote change.

I integrate trauma-informed care to ensure the work is safe, respectful, and paced appropriately.

Together, we focus on both insight and practical shifts that improve connection and functioning.

What you can expect from me

In our first session, we’ll focus on building safety, trust, and understanding your goals.

I’ll explore not only your concerns, but also the relationships, contexts, and systems shaping your experience.

Whether you come alone, as a couple, or as a family, I’ll help map patterns that may be influencing the issue.

We’ll move at your pace, with no pressure to share more than feels comfortable.

By the end, we’ll begin identifying meaningful directions for our work together.
