Each person's life experience is unique, influenced by their childhood, relationships, and personal circumstances. I specialize in supporting those who have experienced trauma, specifically complex trauma or those who have grown up in emotionally neglectful or immature environments. If you're struggling with perfectionism, feelings of shame, attachment-related concerns, or even challenges in setting healthy boundaries, I provide a space where you can be vulnerable and feel genuinely understood, validated, and heard.
My approach blends parts work within a deeply relational and psychodynamic lens to make sense of your inner world. Through inner child and attachment-focused work, I help clients deepen self-understanding and build more authentic, connected relationships, both internally and externally.
In our sessions, I strive to create a compassionate environment where you can explore past experiences and make small yet impactful changes in your life. I balance empathy with directness, offering both support and clarity, and I incorporate a touch of humor to what might seem like a daunting process. If you feel like we may be a good fit, please reach out!
