Clinical Approach
I believe therapy is not one-size-fits-all. Your experiences, needs, and goals are unique, and our work together should reflect that.
My approach is person-centered, collaborative, and trauma-informed. I strive to create a space where you feel safe enough to be honest, curious enough to explore what is underneath your struggles, and supported as you work toward meaningful change.
For clients navigating chronic illness, complex trauma, anxiety, or other challenges, therapy can be a place to reconnect with yourself—not by ignoring what you're experiencing, but by developing a deeper understanding of your thoughts, emotions, body, and protective patterns.
Approaches I Draw From
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Exploring the different parts of yourself with curiosity and compassion, rather than judgment.
Somatic & Mindfulness Approaches
Drawing from somatic practices, mindfulness, and Polyvagal Theory to develop greater awareness of your body's signals, understand patterns of nervous system activation, and cultivate a greater sense of safety, grounding, and connection.
Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Learning to make space for difficult experiences while moving toward the values and life that matter to you.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that may be keeping you stuck and developing more helpful ways of responding.
Exposure & Response Prevention (ERP)
Working with anxiety and OCD by gradually changing patterns of avoidance, checking, and reassurance-seeking.
Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT)
Processing the impact of trauma and exploring beliefs that may have developed following difficult experiences.
A collaborative process
You don't need to come into therapy knowing exactly what you need or how to “fix” yourself.
We'll work together to understand where you are, identify what matters most to you, and determine what approaches may be most supportive.
Therapy isn't about changing who you are. It's about creating the space to come home to yourself.
