My Approach to Helping
Our sessions will be a safe, non-judgmental space where you don’t need to have it all figured out. I’m here to guide the process, and we’ll take it one step at a time, starting from wherever you are—even if those steps feel small. I show up as a real person and take a casual and approachable stance during sessions. While I take our work seriously, I believe that therapy can and should include moments of humor and lightness. I believe that my authenticity in sessions helps clients feel safe to bring their true selves into the space as well.
I employ evidence-based techniques, including trauma-informed care, cognitive-behavioral therapy, and attachment theory, to help individuals explore and heal from relational trauma that can often be the cause of current struggles with relationships, intimacy, boundaries, and so much more. My work focuses on supporting individuals in identifying and processing the effects of early harmful experiences that can lead to lack of trust in people, choosing relationships with people who hurt them, and continued insecurity in relationships.
My approach is client-centered, ensuring that therapeutic interventions are tailored to meet your unique needs and goals. Together, you and I can work to uncover the experiences that shape your life and relationships, allowing you to connect with your values and needs, build emotional strength, and move forward with greater freedom and resilience.
