We all have a basic need to feel connected, accepted and understood. We want to find clarity and happiness, and to escape the stream of negative and painful emotions inside. Maybe you are a grown adult who sometimes feels like a child on the inside, with needs and demands that make you feel weak and ashamed. Maybe you're so busy caring for others that you don't feel able to care for yourself. Maybe you struggle in your relationship or marriage. Maybe you have old wounds from childhood that keep showing up in your thoughts. Maybe you're cautiously considering making a huge change in your life and having doubts. My approach to therapy is fundamentally relational, trauma-informed, empathic and non-judgmental. I show up with patience, warmth and a determination to help us understand what you need to find wellness and peace of mind. Therapy with me is accessible, collaborative, supportive and uniquely yours, based on your own individual circumstances, needs and wishes. I believe that the most essential ingredient in therapy is an open and trusting therapeutic relationship. I can work with you to improve self-awareness, self-compassion and resilience to transform your challenges into growth, no matter how great or how small. It is worthwhile for you to take the next step in the process of finding the best version of you.
