I welcome clients from all backgrounds and life experiences. I have supported many individuals navigating trauma, neurodivergence, grief, anxiety, and mood disorders.

Healing isn’t instant, and that’s okay. Our minds may recognize what needs to shift faster than our bodies and nervous systems can adapt. Trauma and learned patterns live in the body, so true healing comes through repetition, corrective experiences, and patience. Feeling stuck or frustrated is common, often when you’re closer to meaningful change than you realize. Building self-compassion and honoring the pace of your body and nervous system are important parts of the process.

Early sessions are about understanding you and your story, rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach. I take time to learn about your history, your goals, and the patterns that may be holding you back, so we can design a therapy process that fits your needs. There’s no set timeline for this—I encourage you to move at your own rhythm. My priority starting out is creating a space of comfort and trust.

My practice is shaped by my own experiences of trauma and loss and by the virtues I hold as a therapist. Validating others is one of my core values, paired with gentle guidance and accountability when it supports growth. I value offering unconditional positive regard to my clients, encouraging the messy aspects to come forward in therapy, as well as the quirks and strengths, knowing how much full self-acceptance contributes to self-love.

I’m here to guide you with clarity while honoring your wisdom and centering what’s meaningful to you. I help you understand your diagnoses, explore what truly fits, and choose interventions that feel right for you. I bring in strategies thoughtfully and adjust based on your responses and feedback, balancing direction with respect for your autonomy.
