Engaging in psychotherapy is a courageous step toward reconciling with oneself, healing past wounds, and cultivating lasting inner peace. This unique relationship becomes a foundation for transforming all other connections. Psychotherapy is, at its core, a spiritual journey—a pilgrimage into the depths of one’s own being, where self-discovery unfolds. Just as a pilgrim visits temple after temple, your therapeutic path may pass through experiences with different guides. I may be your current one, perhaps not the first nor the last. Each phase of this journey requires courage and belief in profound change.

My education and experience has led me to a profound passion for the restoration of people. I value understanding how the human mind functions on a day to day basis. My education and experience in Marriage (Couple) and Family Therapy has led me to further expertise on topics including communication, conflict resolution, relationship issues, sex and stress within relationships. I believe therapy should never be seen as a failure, but rather as an avenue of growth and restoration.

I offer an environment where change can be explored in creative and practical ways. Mindful conversation and reflection, compassion for self and the practice of both cognitive and somatic strategies are incorporated into each session. I believe that therapy is a co-created experience. It is important to me that people find new resources and enhance the ones that are already available to them. My approach is influenced by somatic psychology, interpersonal neurobiology, attachment theory, developmental, relational and psychodynamic schools of psychology.
