My work prioritizes the therapeutic relationship above all else, ensuring that my clients feel seen, understood, and accepted unconditionally. Once this alliance is formed, the deeper work of therapy can begin.
I offer down-to-earth therapy, based in experience and evidence-based practices, but in an accessible and organic way. Main goals of my approach are deepening insight, processing emotions, challenging beliefs, problem-solving, and facilitating corrective emotional experiences.
I'd be thrilled to connect and join you on your journey. Please reach out if you think we'd be a good match.
