Therapy is a wonderful space to build resilience. Through cultivating awareness of our thoughts, feelings, and sensations, we can break unwanted patterns of avoidance, reactivity, or shutting down. Through replacing judgment with mindfulness and self-criticism with self-compassion, we gain a greater sense of agency. Through understanding ourselves within our biological, social, and historical context, we are reminded of a shared humanity.
I utilize a creative, compassionate, and collaborative approach to help clients process past experiences, deepen self-understanding, and clearly communicate their feelings and needs. Drawing from attachment-based, mindfulness, and parts work models, I support clients in uncovering their own innate capacity to heal and grow.
If you are feeling stuck, facing a life transition, or looking to connect to a greater sense of meaning and purpose, please reach out to learn more about working together.

I work with clients struggling with anxiety, unresolved trauma, and issues stemming from life transitions and relationship challenges. During our initial sessions, I use reflective listening, psychoeducation, and grounding strategies to help create a safe, compassionate space. As we get to know one another, we will collaborate to identify meaningful treatment goals and effective interventions.
