Great to meet you!

I’m passionate about guiding individuals through their unique journeys toward healing and self-discovery. My professional path is rooted in over a decade of experience in mental health, enriched by my education in psychology, neuroscience, and energy work.

Beyond my professional credentials, I bring a personal touch to my practice. I understand the challenges of balancing personal growth with life’s demands and have a genuine commitment to helping you find balance, healing, and fulfillment.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I specialize in alternative therapies, including somatic practices, mindfulness, and EFT. I’m dedicated to supporting clients who are navigating trauma, anxiety, stress, and life transitions. My approach is integrative and compassionate, combining yoga therapy, energy practices, and evidence-based techniques to foster holistic well-being.

What you can expect from our first session

When you join me for a session, expect a supportive and transformative experience tailored to your needs. I integrate mindfulness, grounding exercises, and self-care strategies for lasting benefits. You’ll gain tools to build inner strength, approach challenges with confidence, and explore your feelings in a compassionate space. By the end, you’ll have a deeper understanding of yourself and practical tools to enhance your well-being and resilience.
