I specialize in working with individuals navigating trauma and grief, including experiences that may feel complex, unresolved, or difficult to put into words. My approach is grounded in psychodynamic and narrative therapies, with integration of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) informed techniques to support emotional regulation and distress tolerance.
In our work together, we explore how past experiences shape present patterns, relationships, and sense of self, while also creating space to process loss in a way that feels meaningful and manageable. I aim to offer a thoughtful, steady, and non-judgmental environment where you can deepen self-understanding and strengthen coping skills.
It can be especially challenging to reach out for support when you are carrying trauma or grief. You may be feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure how to make sense of what you’ve been through, and it’s not always easy to put those experiences into words. I offer a space where you can begin at your own pace, without pressure or judgment.
