APPROACH

My training is rooted in Psychodynamic and Relational theories of psychology. While some therapies focus primarily on thoughts and behaviors, my approach looks more deeply at the whole of your personhood. Together, we might ask: What motivates you? Where do you find meaning in your life? How have your relationships with family, friends, and significant others shaped who you are today? Because relationships lie at the heart of so much of our human experience, they will also be central to our work together. We will explore your family and relational history, your emotions, the ways you inhabit your body, and what is happening in the “here and now”—both in your relationships outside of therapy and in the dynamic that unfolds between us in session. Much of our work will involve noticing how past experiences continue to echo in the present and how those patterns influence the way you live, move, and speak in the world.

Therapy is both beautiful and challenging. It is deeply personal work, and I do not take lightly the courage it requires to embark on this journey. As we step into the places in your life that have brought you pain, it is natural for emotions such as grief, anger, or anxiety to surface more strongly as they are given room to be expressed and understood. In our work together, your experiences and your pace will always guide the process. I invite you to bring as much of yourself as feels right, knowing we will be curious not only about what you share, but also about why and how you share it.

Our sessions may often feel like a thoughtful conversation—one where I listen deeply, reflect with care, and walk alongside you. My commitment is to create an atmosphere of trust, respect, and mutuality where you can feel safe to bring your full self into the room. It is my honor to accompany you in this work as we move toward greater healing, freedom, and wholeness.
