About me and my therapy practice
Wherever you are in life, whatever you are feeling or facing, that is a good place to begin. You do not need a clear story or a fixed goal. Therapy can start with whatever is happening for you in the moment, even if it does not make sense to you right now.
I am interested in how life looks and feels from your side. My role is to remain curious and to help develop a space with you that feels safe and trusted, where you can speak openly and honestly as we explore your experience together.
The relationship we build is central to the work. How we relate to one another often reflects patterns that show up in the rest of our lives, and as we begin to notice these patterns, new insights and meaning can slowly emerge.
Therapy can be a place to explore your past and how it has shaped you. Early experiences lay the blueprint for how we cope with life’s difficulties, what we expect from others, and the stories we tell about ourselves. By bringing light to these, you can decide what still serves you and what may be holding you back.
I believe that it is through greater insight into our past and present that change becomes more possible, we become less restricted by the things that once trapped us, and we feel better able to live the lives we choose.
