Therapy, at its core, is a journey of shared humanity. You are not a diagnosis, but a human being, with really good reasons for how you got to this point in life. Honoring the ways you have survived your pain cultivates your self acceptance which is essential to my approach to transformative therapy. Whether you find yourself caught in negative relationship patterns, repetitive self criticism or trapped cycles of procrastination and overwhelm, together we can work to uncover the roots of your struggles and transform these negative patterns.
My therapeutic lens is trauma-informed and rooted in attachment theory, Depth-Oriented Therapy, IFS, and at times, a touch of dark humor. I value showing up authentically in the room rather than as a blank presence. Moving beyond pop psychology buzzwords and inspirational quotes, I strive to offer space for real emotional exploration, repair, and growth.
Healing is a gradual process, one that often involves navigating through deep rooted defenses. You deserve to be truly seen and deeply understood, and I hope to provide you that. Together, we will uncover the strength and wisdom that is already present within you.
