Many of us turn to therapy at a point or place in our lives where we can no longer deal with ourselves. Seeking support is a powerful first step. Do you want to feel more connected? Less resentful?

By working together, we will co-create new learning environments to generate deeper insights on the sources of distress, as well as practical skills to navigate life with greater ease and meaning.

With a trauma informed approach, I work to develop a therapeutic relationship built on mutual trust, respect, and understanding.
