What's My Approach to Therapy?

My approach to healing is warm, supportive, and collaborative. I believe that each person has the inner strength and resilience needed for growth and change. In our work together, I strive to create a nonjudgmental space where you feel safe to explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. I use evidence-based approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), and mindfulness, while tailoring each session to meet your unique needs. Whether you're facing anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, or life transitions, I walk alongside you with compassion, helping you build insight, develop coping strategies, and move toward greater balance and well-being.
