SHE/HER
I believe that problems often arise when people become stuck in negative thought patterns or interaction cycles. When individuals hold onto limiting narratives about themselves, these beliefs can become the root of various issues. My work focuses on helping clients recognize and transform these patterns within themselves and their relationships, empowering them to achieve their personal and relational goals. Change happens when we recognize our role as the narrator of our story and take control of what that story becomes.
​
In my practice, I value transparency, collaboration, and challenge, offering clients the opportunity to explore and understand their inner workings. I use a systemic approach, encouraging clients to see themselves within the context of their relationships and the larger systems around them. Additionally, I incorporate a feminist lens into my work, helping clients acknowledge and address the ways in which gender, power dynamics, and societal structures influence their lives.
​
I work with individuals, couples, and families who are seeking to empower themselves and strengthen their relationships through deep self-exploration. I am particularly passionate about supporting clients aged 14 and older and have a special interest in working with the LGBTQIA+ community. My approach is inclusive and affirming, recognizing the unique challenges and strengths that come with diverse identities and experiences. I also bring a trauma-informed perspective to my practice, making adaptations to meet different levels of trauma and ensuring my clients feel safe and understood.
​
Outside of therapy, I enjoy reading, weightlifting, hiking, and cooking. These activities help me stay grounded and rejuvenated, allowing me to bring my best self to our sessions. I am committed to continuous learning and personal growth, both as a therapist and as an individual, to provide the best possible support to my clients.
