My Approach to Therapy

My counseling approach emphasizes a person-centered and trauma-informed perspective, establishing a safe and non-judgmental environment. My goal is to help you enhance self-connection while fostering curiosity and understanding about your internal experiences. With couples counseling I help couples increase intimacy, connection, and promote effective communication. Throughout our sessions, I honor and validate your religious, spiritual, gender, cultural, and social identities. My professional background includes assisting adults, adolescents, and couples dealing with a range of concerns, such as gender and sexuality, relationships, depression, grief, loss, and anxiety. Additionally, I have received specialized training in employing the NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM) to address attachment-related issues, relational challenges, and complex trauma.
