My approach to therapy incorporates deep emotional work with action and goal-oriented steps. I aim to help clients build awareness of their pain points while fostering a mindful and nonjudgmental curiosity about themselves. I have specialized training in working with folks impacted by trauma and experiencing perinatal mental health and adjustment concerns. I believe our past experiences, including intergenerational trauma, can impact the way we show up in the present. My goal is to create a therapeutic space in which clients can work through these experiences to find their authentic selves and build deeper relationships. I incorporate several mindfulness-based & somatic techniques. I seek to understand a client's unique background to develop a tailored treatment plan to help clients develop healthy coping skills and meaningful connections. My training in trauma and perinatal mental health provide a unique lens for supporting parents who are working towards their own healing. Asking for help when we are struggling can be one of the hardest things to do. You have taken the first step, and I would be honored to be a part of your therapeutic journey. I seek to show up authentically and empathically in my work as a therapist and have a deep love and appreciation for this work.
