My Approach
A bit about my approach to therapy
My style is collaborative, direct, and nonjudgmental. I focus on building safety and trust at your pace, and we’ll work together to set clear goals that feel manageable and meaningful to you. I use a trauma-informed lens to help you understand how past experiences may be impacting you today, without defining you by them.
Depending on your needs, sessions might include skills to manage emotions, space to process painful experiences, or support to challenge patterns that no longer serve you. I always aim to offer practical tools while holding space for your values, culture, and strengths.
What you can expect from our first session
Clients often leave sessions with a clearer understanding of what they’re feeling, why certain patterns show up, and how to respond with more intention and care. You’ll gain tools to regulate emotions, challenge unhelpful thoughts, set boundaries, and connect more deeply with yourself and others.
More than anything, my goal is for you to feel seen, supported, and more in control of your healing. Progress may look different for everyone, but with time, many clients share that they feel more grounded, confident, and hopeful about what’s ahead.
