Welcome! I'm a therapist who values curiosity, creativity and using the therapeutic relationship to safely explore emotional challenges and feelings of stuckness. My goal is to provide the comfort and guidance necessary to help you navigate painful or confusing experiences that might feel overwhelming on your own. I believe that the burdensome symptoms of anxiety, depression and trauma often stem from early relational experiences and that we can easily begin to feel alone and disconnected. Through therapy, inner conflicts and limiting beliefs can be explored and unraveled leading to a greater sense of harmony and empowerment.
I use a relational and emotion-focused approach, incorporating somatic practice, psychodynamic exploration and cognitive restructuring to help you better understand yourself so that you can feel more authentic and empowered. I will be continuing my training in Internal Family Systems and Process-Experiential EFT.
