All parts of you are welcome here, even the ones you're still getting to know! Many of the clients I work with come to therapy feeling emotionally exhausted, caught in cycles of overthinking, struggling with self-doubt, or repeating patterns in relationships. Couples may be navigating communication challenges, rebuilding trust, infertility stress, or feeling disconnected from one another. Others seek support while navigating identity, family dynamics, parenting concerns, or major life changes.
I work with children, teens, adults, couples, and families, tailoring therapy to each person's unique needs and goals. My approach is collaborative, warm, and grounded in curiosity. I integrate DBT, ACT, relational, and EMDR-trained approaches to support deeper insight, emotional regulation, and lasting change. Let's make sense of it together!
I have experience working with clients of diverse ages and cultural backgrounds, from individuals, couples, and even supporting parents in strengthening family dynamics.These deepened my understanding of how identity, history, and environment shape the way we understand ourselves and connect with others. If this resonates with you, I invite you to reach out!
