My approach is trauma-informed, solution-focused, and grounded in Attachment Theory, which acknowledges the complex, interconnected social contexts that influence our lives. I draw on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients explore the connection between their thoughts, feelings, and actions, empowering them to break free from unhelpful cycles. Acceptance Commitment Therapy (ACT), I guide my clients in connecting deeply with their story, building self-compassion, and taking practical, values-driven steps to create lasting, positive change and a more fulfilling life.
I believe life’s hardest moments can spark the deepest growth. I help my clients navigate relationship struggles, life changes, and mood challenges. I’m especially passionate about supporting those who have experienced prolonged exposure to trauma, including survivors of domestic violence and veterans.
When I'm not at work, you’ll find me lacing up for a run or hitting the gym for strength training. I’m an avid reader and I travel whenever I can.
