My theoretical orientation is integrative, drawing on cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and client-centered theories. I tailor my approach to the unique needs and goals of each client. For instance, I integrate cognitive-behavioral strategies to address specific challenges, foster humanistic principles to promote self-discovery, and employ client-centered techniques to enhance the therapeutic alliance. I believe in the inherent wisdom of the body and incorporate emotional and somatic awareness into my holistic practice. By listening to the body, we can navigate past traumas and painful experiences together.
Expect me to be warm, genuine, curious, and compassionate. I aim to offer an inclusive, affirming, and empowering space and therapy sessions that are inviting, relational, and collaborative. I work from an empathic and curious stance, believing in your resilience and recognizing your unique story.
