I am a holistic psychotherapist with a background in yoga, meditation, wellness and Reiki. My approach is compassionate, nurturing and authentic. I address depression, anxiety and trauma with an integrative approach drawing upon ancient Eastern wisdom, Buddhism practices and psychodynamic theory.
Have you had some major life changes that have made life feel rocky? Have you not felt like yourself in a while? Are you hurt from constantly feeling misunderstood and unheard? Or perhaps you want more people to like you but you're scared of being seen and what people think of you.
Hearing your story and what you've gone through means alot to me - I draw upon your experiences and therapy goals with my training in relational and mindful/somatic tools, Buddhist perspectives and solution focused strategies to help you find your ground and meet your challenges with more ease, resilience and self-compassion.
