I support my clients in honoring their wisdom and challenging their inner judgmental voice. If you find yourself navigating loss, trying to figure out your next step in life, managing new stages in your relationship, and having recently been diagnosed with a terminal illness, then we might be a good fit. Through our work together, we will explore the past to better understand the beliefs we have in the present. We will work together to build self-awareness and understanding to attain more meaningful connections.
My approach is warm, slow, and attentive. I use a relational approach to guide you and allow you to discover ways you have, unknowingly, prevented yourself from succeeding or connecting.
My goal is to allow you the space to relax, find stability, and heal. Often we can find that when we find someone who can hold the space we need. I look forward to hearing from you. Sim eu falo português.

I primarily work psychodynamically and emotionally focused. In our first session, we will explore what brought you into therapy or how therapy has looked in the past. Care and trust take time to build so you feel safe to explore your subconscious. During our time together I will challenge, support, and engage you in trusting your needs.
