I approach each person through a holistic and creative therapeutic lens, striving to cultivate connection through curiosity, compassion, and genuine presence. My goal is to build trust while supporting the growth of each client’s unique sense of self. I specialize in treating trauma, integrating various modalities, including EMDR.
Trauma is often less about what happened to us and more about what continues to live within us—shaping how we see ourselves, relate to others, and move through the world. With awareness and a willingness to engage in the healing process, its weight can gradually become lighter.
It is a profound privilege to meet individuals at a particular moment in their life journey and to accompany them, for however long, as they grow, heal, and deepen their understanding of themselves. Bearing witness to this process—and contributing to it in meaningful ways—is invaluable to me and is at the heart of why I am devoted to this work.
