English
| Français My approach welcomes individuals navigating life transitions, healing from trauma, or seeking a deeper connection with themselves and their communities. I work best with clients who value a therapy space grounded in mindfulness, inclusivity, and self-exploration. Together, we’ll create a safe environment where diverse identities, unique experiences, and all parts of your journey are honored. Through a blend of trauma-informed, multicultural, and transpersonal approaches, we’ll explore tools to foster growth, resilience, and authentic well-being.
I specialize in trauma-informed, humanistic counseling with a focus on mindfulness, multicultural sensitivity, and transpersonal approaches. Together, we’ll use grounding practices, somatic work, and self-compassion to help you create inner safety and a deeper connection to yourself and others.
I know reaching out isn’t always easy. My role is to support you in creating a safe, nurturing space where your unique journey can unfold without judgment. Whether you’re healing, discovering yourself, or redefining your path, I’m here to walk alongside you with respect and compassion. Take that first step, and let’s begin.
