My Approach:

As a therapist, my approach is centered around collaboration, empowerment, and the mind-body connection. I believe in working alongside my clients as a partner in their healing journey, tailoring treatment to their unique needs and goals. By fostering a collaborative relationship, I ensure that clients have an active role in shaping their therapeutic experience, allowing them to feel more engaged and invested in their progress. I deeply emphasize the mind-body connection, recognizing that emotional well-being is intertwined with physical sensations and experiences. This holistic view helps clients become more attuned to how their bodies respond to stress, trauma, or other emotional challenges, allowing them to cultivate greater self-awareness. Additionally, I strive to create a supportive, empowering space where clients feel safe to explore their feelings and take charge of their healing. My goal is to equip them with the tools and confidence to guide their own growth, fostering resilience and long-lasting change. 

Background:

I have a wide range of experience in mental health concerns including ADHD, mood disorders, perinatal mental illness, depression, and anxiety. My passion is supporting my clients while they pursue stronger relationships with others, and themselves. Over the years, my personal and work experience has influenced my passion for helping individuals foster healthy, fulfilling relationships and sex lives. I believe that sexuality is a significant part of a person’s life, and everyone has the right to safe and enjoyable sexual experiences. My work focuses on normalizing conversations around sexual health and wellbeing, repairing the mind-body connection, and healing

interpersonal relationships. Regardless of the type of support you are seeking, I hope to be the encouragement you need as you take the steps towards healing.
