We all experience struggles in our journey. At times, life circumstances can make us feel overwhelmed. Therapy can help regulate emotions, support better choices, remove internal obstacles and alleviate symptoms. Together, we will explore how old ways of coping no longer serve you, and will work to foster new and adaptive ones.
Whatever brings you to therapy, I’m here to assist and partner with you in the process.

My approach- Integrative Psychotherapy

Taking an inward look requires courage and vulnerability.
 

Opening up, giving voice to what has gone unspoken, and allowing oneself to be seen are acts of bravery and strength. I approach therapy as a collaborative and respectful process that honors each client’s capacity for growth and resilience.

My work is holistic and integrative, with an emphasis on identifying strengths, recognizing unhelpful patterns, holding a safe and attuned therapeutic space, and supporting meaningful improvements in daily functioning.

Every client is unique. Integrative psychotherapy offers a flexible and comprehensive framework that allows treatment to be thoughtfully tailored to each individual’s needs. Rather than adhering rigidly to a single model, I draw from multiple therapeutic approaches, selecting interventions that best support each client’s emotional, psychological, and relational well-being.

Within this integrative framework, I use evidence-based approaches including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness-based interventions, Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Inference-Based CBT (I-CBT), EMDR, psychodynamic and person-centered therapy, SPACE, and play-based, child-centered approaches.

I combine practical tools and skills with a nonjudgmental, emotionally attuned process, and bring a genuine, direct, and down-to-earth therapeutic presence to my work.

"

The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggles, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern.

Beautiful people do not just happen."
