My Approach

I take a bottom-up, trauma-informed approach to therapy, recognizing that trauma and accumulated stress are not simply something that happened to you, but often the way your nervous system adapted to help you survive. Before we can effectively challenge thoughts or change behaviors, it is important to first create a sense of safety within the body. My work begins by helping you develop awareness of your nervous system, bodily sensations, and patterns of activation so that healing can occur from the inside out.
From there, I integrate evidence-based cognitive, behavioral, and experiential approaches to fit your unique needs, lived experiences, and environment. Whether you are navigating the effects of trauma, managing everyday stress, adjusting to life transitions, relational struggles, or seeking support through the challenges of daily life, I tailor therapy to meet you where you are. I strive to create a warm, collaborative space where you feel safe, understood, and accepted as you are. I welcome clients of all ages, identities, and backgrounds, and will shape our sessions to honor your individual strengths, goals, and path toward sustainable healing.
