Welcome!
If you feel like like hasn’t turned out the way you had hoped, if you feel overwhelmed by self-doubt or the weight of the past, you are not alone. As a therapist, I love to help people learn to love themselves, even when they are facing the darkest times of their life. Thank you for taking this important step in your journey.
How I work:
The foundation of my approach is a deep respect for your lived experience. I believe in your inherent worth as a human being, and your capacity for self-healing. It’s my role to provide you a safe, warm and welcoming space to do just that. I often draw on DBT skills, Internal Family Systems, Mindful Self-Compassion and psychodynamics, but what really matters if finding what works for you. We’ll figure it out together, and move at a pace that feels right for you.
What you can expect with me:
People often describe me as kind-hearted, empathetic, and calming to be around. I’m not one to shy away from honest feedback or gentle encouragement toward growth, but I always aim to offer it in a way that’s thoughtful, non-judgmental, and never harsh. My hope is that you feel truly seen and supported, with space to breathe, rooted in trust, and tools that help you move toward the life you want.
More than just my work:
In my spare time, you'll find me hiking or curled up with a good book. I love spending time outside, and find having a connection to nature is deeply healing. I have an affectionate cat named Shade, who may pop in to say hi to you during a video call!
