About My Practice
My Approach
I provide compassionate, trauma-informed care to help clients navigate life’s challenges and transitions. I focus on creating a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel heard, validated, and supported in exploring their emotions, thoughts, and behaviors.
I work collaboratively with each client to identify goals, build practical coping strategies, and foster resilience. My approach emphasizes self-awareness, mindfulness, and strengths-based exploration, helping clients understand themselves more fully and develop skills that support lasting change.
Clients can expect a warm, attuned, and flexible process tailored to their needs, with ongoing check-ins to ensure therapy remains supportive and aligned with their goals. I aim to help clients build insight, develop coping tools, and strengthen their connection to themselves and others.
