Are you feeling trapped in repetitive habits or thought patterns that seem impossible to break? Do you often experience feelings of inadequacy or never being 'enough'? Perhaps you're struggling to find fulfillment in your career or relationships, unsure of how to move forward? I specialize in helping adults like you untangle the cycle of self-criticism, shame, and judgment, and discover your inherent strengths and resilience.If you're seeking support to navigate these challenges, I'm here to help. My approach is rooted in social justice and trauma-informed care, acknowledging how external systems impact our lives and well-being.
By integrating diverse contemporary psychotherapy modalities, I equip you with the awareness and skills to understand yourself more deeply, finding clarity and meaning in your life. Recognizing that each person is unique, I tailor my therapeutic style to best suit your needs and preferences.
You're encouraged to bring your authentic self into our sessions, which are held in a warm, non-judgmental space. If you're curious to learn more, I invite you to schedule a free consultation to see if we're a good fit.
