My Approach to Helping

My approach blends evidence-based therapies with a mindful, person-centered presence, grounded in the belief that healing happens when we feel truly seen, heard, and supported in exploring deeper questions of meaning and purpose. I integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help you connect with your values and create a life that feels authentic and fulfilling, even alongside pain. With EMDR, we gently process and release the impact of trauma, making space for new perspectives and growth. Through mindfulness-based practices, you’ll learn to cultivate awareness and steadiness, meeting each moment with calm and clarity.

My Values as a Therapist

Like the willow tree—strong, flexible, and deeply rooted—I strive to help you navigate life’s changes with resilience, clarity, and compassion. I offer a collaborative and affirming space where you can deepen self-understanding, build inner strength, and move forward with greater confidence. I believe that every person has the capacity to change, grow, and create a more meaningful life. I offer supportive, affirming space where healing and transformation are possible. Grounded in evidence-based therapies and mindful presence, I walk alongside clients as they build resilience, uncover inner strengths, and move toward greater clarity, connection, and purpose.
