My therapy approach is relational and collaborative. Feeling comfortable and connected is when therapy is most effective. My goal is to support you to understand yourself and what you need; to come back home to yourself. I tend to work with folks who aren’t feeling satisfied with their quality of life. This may show up as perfectionism, lack of motivation, hyper-independence, people pleasing tendencies, imposter syndrome etc. I have experience working in healthcare, not for profit, and private settings.
I believe in a holistic approach to healing that addresses both cognitive processes and how trauma is stored in the body. I am an EMDR-trained and IFS-informed clinician, drawing from parts work, attachment theory, and somatic approaches. To support day-to-day regulation, I integrate practical skills from CBT & DBT.
I feel very lucky to do what I love. I acknowledge my own privileges and I deeply value inclusivity and being a lifelong learner. Starting with a new therapist, or starting therapy in general can bring up a lot. I’m here to make the process as comfortable and warm as possible. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions, and thanks for stopping by!
