Most of the struggles that bring people to therapy aren't really about the surface problem — they're about the parts of us that developed along the way to survive, cope, or belong, and that are still running the show long after they need to. My approach is rooted in Internal Family Systems — the belief that we all have different parts of ourselves, and that healing happens when we can meet those parts with curiosity and compassion rather than judgment or shame. I draw on relational, existential, and somatic frameworks alongside IFS — because how we feel in our bodies matters, how our early relationships shaped us matters, and the deeper questions of meaning, identity, and authenticity matter too. I also use Accelerated Resolution Therapy for trauma that needs more direct processing. Together we work to regulate the nervous system, reconnect with inner wisdom, and understand the patterns that have kept you stuck — so you can begin to live in a way that actually reflects who you are. My style is warm, curious, and collaborative. I believe you are the expert on your own experience. My job is to help you access what you already know.
