About My Clients
Much of my work has centered on supporting people through challenging experiences—whether they’re working through trauma, complex relationship challenges, depression, suicidality, contentious shared custody, or all of the above. What I’ve learned from these individuals is that healing is rarely a straight path, but it’s always possible. There’s a profound strength within each of us, often waiting to be recognized. I’m here to walk beside you as you discover what healing looks like for you.
My Background and Approach
In my work as a therapist, I see myself as more of a guide than an expert. I use an approach called Internal Family Systems (IFS) because I believe that each of us is made up of different parts—some we’re proud of, others we might struggle with—and all of them deserve to be heard and understood. My role is to create a space where you can feel safe enough to explore all those parts of yourself, without internal or external judgment. I also work as a therapist and adult advocate at a safe shelter for victims of domestic violence and human trafficking. I use the knowledge from my experience working with those populations to inform my strengths-based, person-in-context approach to every client. You're the expert in your life, and that’s the foundation of our work together. My sessions are warm, empathetic, and focused on honoring the strengths you already possess, while creating space for deeper growth and self-discovery.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe you are the expert of your own life, with a unique and deeply personal experience, and that the most meaningful changes emerge from deepening your inner awareness and enhancing your ability to express your experience. By gently cultivating mindful connections with your inner world, we can explore techniques to deepen your self-awareness, nurture your innate sense of self, and enhance your ability to fully communicate your needs and wants.
