What's My Approach to Therapy?

Therapy is where real change begins—with compassion, understanding, and practical tools for growth. I believe every person’s story is unique, shaped by past experiences and present challenges. My commitment is to create a safe, nonjudgmental environment where you feel understood and empowered.

Using a blend of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), and psychodynamic approaches, I help you explore how past experiences influence your current thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Together, we’ll uncover the patterns that shape your life, and develop personalized strategies for meaningful change. My approach is both insight-oriented and skills-based, providing practical tools and techniques to strengthen your confidence and resilience beyond the therapy room.

I am passionate about supporting clients through the complexities of anxiety, obsessive-compulsive condition (OCD), trauma, and the ups and downs of relationships and family dynamics. I offer guidance and care during life’s most challenging moments. Starting therapy can feel overwhelming, but every step you take is a step toward positive change and healing.

My ultimate goal is to help you feel whole and empowered, equipped with the skills to navigate life’s inevitable challenges, strengthen relationships, and create a more balanced and fulfilling life.
