Therapy for children, adolescents, and adults.
The Therapy Process
Therapy is a journey of rediscovering your authentic self. Our focus extends beyond symptoms to uncovering their underlying causes. Let's delve into the 'why' together.
We'll explore early relationships to understand their impact on your current connections. Therapy is a collaborative process where I empower you to guide your own healing journey with my support.
Therapy isn't easy; it requires strength and courage to engage in inner work. It's not a quick fix, but rather a gradual unfolding that respects your individual pace.
Central to therapy is the relationship we build. I prioritize creating a safe, compassionate space where you feel understood and accepted without judgment.
Together, we'll bring unconscious patterns into conscious awareness. Incorporating mindfulness, we'll heighten awareness of your thoughts, feelings, and body sensations, recognizing the mind-body connection.
I adopt a holistic therapy approach, addressing emotional, psychological, physical, and social aspects of your life. My goal is to equip you with skills to foster mindfulness, self-compassion, and an appreciation of your inherent strength and resilience.
We all have a backpack full of experiences we carry with us and I look forward to unpacking your’s with you!

I draw from an eclectic set of therapeutic modalities:
Psychodynamic
to explore past experiences and relationships to gain insight into present issues
Client-Centered
to empower you (the client) to take an active role in your healing process, I will create a supportive and nonjudgmental environment where you feel safe to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences
Mindfulness
bring mindful awareness to already present daily activities, so much of what we do in our daily lives helps us to distract or dissociate from our present experiences
Somatic
mind-body connection, body sensations - where emotions are felt in the body, emotions are first an experience in the body
Gestalt
the practice of present moment awareness and role play
Art Therapy
nonverbal expression, symbolism, creative expression as a means of communication and self-exploration
