I see therapy as a collaborative journey where we are both students and teachers. My clients have taught me the power of uniqueness and individuality in healing. No one-size-fits-all here! I emphasize that clients are the experts of their own stories, and my role is to walk alongside them, offering support, guidance, and empowerment. Clients I’ve worked with share stories of finding direction, momentum, and meaning in their situations. Together, we build meaningful relationships, explore the mind-body-emotion connection, and foster a sense of hope and freedom to be your true and authentic self.
