If you’re feeling overwhelmed by loss, life, or relationship challenges, I’m here to support. Together, we’ll explore your past and present to understand the beliefs and patterns shaping your life. In our supportive space, we’ll work towards healing, nurturing self-awareness, and fostering deeper, more meaningful connections with yourself and those you care about.
I work with individuals and couples shaped by challenging experiences who find themselves repeating old, unhelpful patterns. My approach is relational, helping you tap into your inner healer, explore deeper dynamics, and rewire those patterns in ways that feel balanced, connected, and rooted.
During our time, I collaborate with you to create a space to relax, find stability, and truly listen to yourself or your loved one. Life can feel overwhelming, and trying to keep everything together, we often forget to hear what really matters. As your therapist, I will listen carefully, holding space for your journey towards self-discovery.
