I I know starting therapy can feel vulnerable, so I aim to create a space where you feel comfortable showing up as you are. I believe therapy works best when you feel safe enough to be honest about what is really going on. I approach therapy with curiosity, warmth, and honesty. Together, we’ll explore what’s beneath the surface, make sense of recurring patterns, and work towards changes that fit who you are - not who you think you should be.
I typically take a more exploratory approach. Most of my experience is working with people who feel different and struggle to find a place where they can learn who they are without any type of masking.
If you’re interested in learning more about me to understand if we may be a good fit, please reach out with any questions. I am happy to set up a 15-minute consultation too, just ask!

I believe healing happens through a genuine therapeutic relationship. Our work will focus on understanding your experiences, emotions, and recurring patterns with curiosity and compassion. Rather than focusing on quick fixes, I aim to create a space where greater self-understanding leads to meaningful change. This approach is often a good fit for those seeking deeper understanding and acceptance.

Based on our collaborative effort, I often use an integrative approach taking various aspects of different modalities to fit your needs best. I will point out themes, ask questions to try to deepen understanding, point out recurring patterns, and explore how what shows up in our relationship may mirror issues that arise outside of therapy.
