My therapeutic lens is systemic and holistic. I am influenced by Narrative Therapy and IFS Therapy, and I also consider my practice to be emotion centered and humanistic.

I believe that the best therapy is authentic and empathetic, that all people have the inner strength for healing, and that there is courage in taking the first step in navigating one’s emotional journey.
I firmly believe that each individual has their unique journey towards healing, and I am here to support and guide you in a way that respects your personal choices and autonomy.

Being human in our world can feel challenging at times. What you’re navigating may feel difficult or heavy, but you don’t have to carry the weight of it alone.
Your life and story are important and hold incredible value. I believe that your unique identity and background hold great influence and are a vital part of understanding who you are and how you relate to the world around you.

Being here proves that you can do hard things. It’s not always easy to take the next step and eat your mental health vegetables, or however you personally want to frame the idea of therapy in your mind.
Everyone deserves a safe place to be vulnerable and honest without the fear of judgment or rejection.
