I help people become more aware of their emotions and ways of thinking about daily concerns and problems. Personal insight and self-awareness are essential for long-lasting change. My role as a therapist is to create a brave and non-judgmental space for clients to explore their thoughts, emotions, and past experiences. I employ a cognitive psychodynamic approach, helping clients explore how unconscious processes and early life experiences influence current cognitive patterns of thought and behavior. This leads to a deeper understanding of self and assists with developing healthier ways of thinking and relating to others.

I recognize that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to mental health. I believe in the importance of co-creating an open, judgment-free space where clients can safely explore challenges and collaboratively discover strengths and strategies for managing mental health. I take a strengths-based, curiosity-driven perspective that highlights clients’ innate abilities to process and explore their experiences in order to improve their daily lives.
