Starting therapy can be daunting. My aim is to make it feel safe, practical, and meaningful from the very beginning. I offer useful strategies to help you cope better from the start, while reaching deeper to the root cause of your issues, in order to promote lasting change. I won’t judge you or tell you what to do. Instead, I will support you while you find your own answers, at a pace that feels right for you.
I support adolescents (14+) and adults with a wide range of challenges such as anxiety, stress, relationship problems, burnout, trauma, grief, depression, body image concerns, difficulties with emotion regulation.
I use a mind-body approach, combining evidence-based therapies like CBT, ACT, and Focusing-Oriented Therapy — a somatic therapy that helps you tune into your body to understand yourself more deeply. I also integrate NVC, a way of communicating that fosters connection.
This combination supports both practical coping and a deeper awareness of yourself, often leading to subtle yet powerful shifts in how you feel in your body.
If this resonates with you, I’d be glad to hear from you.
