Dedicated to fostering healing & self-discovery, my therapeutic approach is a blend of trauma-sensitive, attachment-based, & psychodynamic perspectives. I specialize in working with individuals & couples with traumatic backgrounds, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, & life transitions. Creating a supportive space for self-awareness, my goal is to guide you toward a clearer sense of self, more authentic relationships, & positive change. My journey in the mental health field stems from a profound curiosity about the human mind and a genuine desire to assist individuals in overcoming life's challenges.
I am committed to aiding you in navigating the intricate aspects of your life, facilitating self-discovery, & equipping you with coping strategies to manage the impact of past traumas. I find immense fulfillment in accompanying my clients as they unravel the sometimes-tangled emotions, beliefs, & facets of their identity that may no longer align.
Rooted in empathy, active listening, & collaboration, my therapeutic style is designed to provide non-judgmental, but honest feedback. I have a particular focus on addressing parenting issues, complex trauma, queer identity, & religious trauma. I am here to stand alongside you on your journey toward healing and self-discovery.
