Therapy Approach

I am deeply committed to helping individuals navigate challenges and create meaningful changes in their lives. Drawing from both personal and professional experiences, I understand how overwhelming life’s struggles can feel and strive to equip my clients with tools and strategies that are practical, effective, and tailored to their unique needs.

Therapy with me is a collaborative and dynamic process. Together, we’ll have honest, open conversations to explore patterns, overcome obstacles, and identify new approaches to improve your well-being. My approach is active and engaging—I’ll listen attentively, ask thoughtful questions, and encourage you to consider fresh perspectives and solutions that align with your goals.

I work best with clients who are motivated for change and recognize that growth often happens both inside and outside the therapy room. Many of my clients have been in therapy before and are now seeking deeper insights or new ways to approach persistent concerns. They are ready to put in the work and take actionable steps toward building the life they want.

Using evidence-based practices like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and parts work, I create a flexible and personalized experience. Whether through structured methods like homework and exercises or exploratory discussions about relationships, past experiences, or personal patterns, our work will be designed to meet your individual needs. The therapeutic space I provide is one where you can freely express yourself, feel supported, and confidently move toward lasting change.
