About My Practice
I’m a humanistic, integrative psychotherapist working in a relational style. At the heart of my approach is the belief that a co-created therapeutic relationship—one based on trust, respect, and mutual presence—is essential for meaningful and lasting change.
I aim to meet each person with care and compassion, honoring your unique way of being. Whether you’re feeling lost, overwhelmed, stuck, or navigating the effects of past trauma, therapy offers a space to begin understanding and healing.
My practice is grounded in the values of protection, empowerment, potency, nurture, and authenticity. I offer a safe, consistent, and supportive environment—one where you can feel held enough to explore what’s been difficult, at your own pace.
None of us come to therapy because everything is going well. Often, it’s during times of pain, confusion, or vulnerability that we reach out for support. I believe those moments take strength, and they deserve to be met with gentleness and respect.
In our work together, I offer the presence of a self-regulating other, a steady space for reflection, insight, and exploration. I may share observations or offer tools when helpful, but I won’t direct or coach. This is your space, and together we’ll make meaning of the things that matter most to you.
I’m passionate about the healing potential of psychotherapy and deeply value walking alongside people in what can sometimes feel like a daunting or uncertain process. You’re not alone—I’m here to support you.
How I Work
My Approach
I work relationally, which means the therapeutic relationship itself is central to the process. Together, we build a safe and trusting space where you can explore your experiences, emotions, and patterns without judgment.
I draw from a range of therapeutic approaches, integrating what best supports you. This might include humanistic, psychodynamic, somatic, or trauma-informed perspectives. The work is collaborative and responsive to your needs—not one-size-fits-all.

Starting Therapy
If you’re considering therapy, the first step is often just reaching out. I offer an initial conversation—either by phone or online—to see if we feel like a good fit. From there, we can arrange regular weekly sessions, typically at the same time each week.
There’s no commitment beyond what feels right for you. Some people come for a few months; others stay longer. We’ll check in regularly to reflect on how things are going.
