I walk with those navigating late adolescence through adulthood, with particular focus on individuals who have experienced trauma, including survivors of interpersonal violence and victims of crime. My work is informed by attachment theory and neurobiology, helping clients understand how early experiences and existing nervous system patterns can shape emotional responses, relationships, and stress reactions.
My approach is grounded in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), a mindfulness-based framework that helps people heal through a lens of self-defined values and choice, which supports identity and self-worth.
