What should a new client know about working with you?
Starting therapy is a courageous step, and I aim to make the process feel safe, collaborative, and grounded. My style is warm, direct, and deeply attuned. Clients often share that they feel genuinely seen and supported in our work together.
I approach therapy through a psychodynamic and attachment-based lens, always considering the impact of early relationships, trauma, and life experiences on how we function today. I’m also trained in EMDR, which can be a powerful tool in healing from trauma and overwhelming experiences. Whether we’re processing a specific incident or exploring long-standing patterns, my goal is to help you build insight, emotional resilience, and self-trust.
I work at a pace that respects where you are, while also gently challenging patterns that may no longer serve you. Therapy with me isn’t just about problem-solving — it’s about finding your voice, understanding yourself more deeply, and creating space for new ways of being.
