I have had the privilege of working with families, individuals and couples for many years. Helping people bridge miscommunication to foster deeper connections is a passion of mine. When we work to understand ourselves, we often gain profound insights into the systems we are part of. My approach integrates narrative, light somatic and Internal Family Systems (IFS) alongside Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). I draw from a family systems perspective, recognizing that our interconnectedness influences both ourselves and others. I strive to empower my clients to use this awareness as a catalyst for meaning.
My counseling style is warm, compassionate, and collaborative. I see my clients as the true experts of their own lives, and my role is to provide support, clarity, and understanding as they navigate their unique journeys. I especially enjoy working with individuals who are ready to explore deeper layers of themselves and cultivate a sense of wholeness.
Seeking guidance takes incredible strength and courage, and embarking on the path of self-discovery can be transformative. If you’re ready to take that step, I’m here to walk alongside you with empathy and unwavering support.
