My work is trauma-informed and affirming, guided by person-centered and psychodynamic theories. In other words, I provide a warm, nonjudgmental space to explore how the past is showing up in the present.
First, I’ll listen. Then, we’ll look at the patterns that may once have been a source of protection, but now hold you back. While my work is guided by evidence-based practices, I aim to create a therapeutic space filled with ease, spontaneity, and meaningful connection.
With a background in dance, creativity and somatic practices are also valued parts of my work. I’d love to learn more about you and the support you’re seeking. Please email me or use the link in my website to schedule a 15-minute introductory call.
