We all have a story. I believe our stories and experiences deserve a trusting space to process free from judgment. Within the therapeutic relationship, I aim to empower individuals to honor their stories with empathy through nuances of language and self-exploration. When we are given a validating space to understand ourselves in relation to our experiences, we are capable of making meaningful changes in our lives. Through curiosity and collaboration, I support people’s natural ability to heal in the wake of hardship.
