I want to be your partner in holistic Wellness.
Welcome! When we break a bone or become sick, we seek medical treatment. That the same care and attention should be given to our mental health. I believe that therapy is not just about addressing mental health issues—it's about nurturing the whole self, mind, body, and spirit. Therapy also looks different for everyone because our lives are shaped by our experiences, emotions, and somatic responses to everyday life. As your therapist, I will guide you with authenticity and warmth, helping you navigate your unique therapeutic journey.
A Collaborative Approach to Your Well-Being
You are the expert of your own life, and I’m here to provide the support and interventions necessary to achieve your definition of success and healing. Together, we will work collaboratively to identify both short-term and long-term goals, empowering you to take charge of your mental and emotional well-being. I will provide the support and necessary interventions for you to achieve your own definition of success and healing.
Inclusive Therapy for All
While my lived experience as an adopted individual informs my work with those who wish to process their own adoption stories, my practice extends far beyond this. I am passionate about working with a diverse range of clients, including adults, children and teens, families and couples. Identity and a sense of belonging are integral to our mental and emotional well-being, and I am dedicated to helping all clients explore these crucial aspects of their lives.
A Holistic and Eclectic Therapeutic Style
My clinical repertoire draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and inner child work. I believe it is imperative to understand the thoughts and emotions connected with bodily awareness, as they play a significant role in our overall well-being. If you are searching for an eclectic, enthusiastic, and spirited clinician, I would be honored to accompany you on your journey toward healing and self-discovery.
