I strive to create an accepting and supportive space in therapy for you to feel truly seen and heard. I bring compassion, warmth, and unconditional positive regard to this space and believe that healing can happen through supported exploration, and compassionate connection to trusting and caring humans. I often incorporate humor as a connection point with clients and bring in gentle challenging where needed. It is important to me that we incorporate approaches which honor your unique needs - I hope that this can be a space in which you feel supported and celebrated!
I work with clients on a diverse range of subjects, such as: body image, existential distress, climate grief, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, ADHD, trauma, gender/sexuality, academic stressors, and life changes. I often incorporate a systemic framework in acknowledging the systems which impact mental health.
I offer an integrative approach in tailoring our sessions to meet your therapeutic needs, which may shift as we move through this journey. I utilize an acceptance and commitment therapy approach and incorporate solution-focused approaches, CBT, and elements of emotion-focused therapy. I am also able to offer EMDR.
