Healing happens in Relationship
Turning inward. Growing together.
I believe healing happens in relationship – with ourselves, with others, and within the communities we are part of. Therapy offers a unique space where growth, healing and understanding can unfold. My hope is that we build a warm, authentic relationship where you feel supported as you navigate challenges, better understand yourself and move toward the life you want to live.
Getting to know you
My approach is rooted in getting to know you — your story, your strengths, and your dreams. While I draw from my training and theoretical background, our work together is always guided by what feels most helpful and meaningful for whatever you’re going through.
I use a person-centered, integrative approach, which means I intentionally introduce therapeutic styles and techniques based on what best supports your healing and growth. Each session is tailored to your goals or focus areas and what you’re interested in exploring.
At the center of it all is the relationship we build together.
Your story is part of our story
I’m influenced by Relational-Cultural Therapy (RCT) which emphasizes the importance of connection, social justice, and honoring each person’s lived experience and cultural background.
I believe our well-being is shaped not only by our individual experiences, but also by our relationships, communities, cultures, histories, and the larger systems we move through. Systemic inequities and social conditions can affect our sense of safety, belonging, identity, and possibility.
Because of this, I strive to bring cultural awareness, humility and curiosity into our work. I welcome LGBTQ+ and BIPOC clients and am committed to creating an affirming space where your identity, culture and lived experience are respected and valued.
Integrating Mind, Body and Spirit
I’m especially interested in mindfulness and somatic-based approaches, which can help us slow down and become more aware of what is happening within us – our thoughts, emotions, sensations and patterns.
These interests are part of my broader belief in supporting the whole person – mind, body and spirit. I’m also certified in Reiki energy healing and practice yoga, both of which have influenced the way I think about balance, wellness and healing.
Healing on your terms
Trauma can be a great disruptor. It can leave you feeling isolated, unsure of yourself or your path, and disconnected.
Your healing journey is uniquely yours.
We’ll work together to understand where you’ve been, what you’re experiencing now, and where you want to go. My role isn’t to tell you what your healing should look like. It’s to help create space for you to move at your own pace and in your own way.
