It takes courage to reach out for support, and I honor that by offering a safe space for your healing journey. Here, you can slow down, feel seen, and tend to the parts of yourself that have longed for care. Together, we explore life’s challenges with curiosity and compassion, making space for insight, growth, and transformation. In this collaborative work, we uncover the messages beneath your struggles and develop tools for self-acceptance, resilience, and meaningful change.
I work from an integrative, psychodynamic, and relational perspective, drawing from Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness, dreamwork, and depth psychology. My approach is rooted in the understanding that our psyche has an innate capacity for healing. I approach symptoms from a non pathological perspective, aiming not only to alleviate them but also to understand why they arise in the first place.
In our work together, we will gently uncover patterns that keep you stuck, nurture the parts of yourself that need attention, and cultivate practices that allow you to engage more fully with life. Like roots grounding a tree, this process provides stability while supporting new growth and the possibility of reaching toward the life you envision.
I hold the therapeutic relationship as something sacred. Through years of inner work and personal growth, I bring authenticity, empathy, and presence to foster meaningful connections. Some of the most powerful moments in therapy come when a shift in awareness brings clarity, relief, and a renewed sense of freedom. Witnessing these moments of transformation continues to inspire me.
Outside the therapy room, I find inspiration in nature, reflective practices, and continued learning. These practices keep me grounded and enrich my work with clients. I am honored to walk alongside those ready to tend to their inner world, embrace transformation, and reconnect with their inherent wholeness.
