The action you have made to seek help is not an easy one, rather it demonstrates great strength, commitment, and resiliency. The effects of trauma can leave us feeling vulnerable and unsafe long after the event itself. Often people can be left feeling hopeless, disconnected, and ashamed. Healing these wounds are essential to developing a strong sense of self, positive self view, and safety within relationships. I work from a trauma-informed perspective and pull from approaches that will allow us to build an understanding of the protective strategies formed to survive the emotional and mental impact of the trauma and cultivate self-acceptance and trust with yourself and others. I hope to create a space where you feel valued, seen, and safe as I believe the therapeutic relationship is the most important part of the healing process.
Primarily, I work with those who have experienced recent and historical trauma, such as attachment trauma and abuse/assault. Additionally, I work with clients seeking support for emotional distress (e.g., reactivity, difficulties regulating, depression, anxiety), interpersonal relationships (e.g., relationship patterns, vulnerability issues), and personality disorders, among other areas as well. My practice is inclusive, as I work with diverse problems, histories and cultural identities, and ensure the approaches used are catered to each unique individual. My hope is to work together to heal old wounds and painful current experiences, and guide you through your journey towards a healthier life and empower you to become your most authentic self.

Approach Description: I view therapy as a collaborative process, where clients are regarded as experts in their own lives and the therapist's role is to support and guide. I typically work from a psychodynamic, relational, somatic-based, and trauma-informed framework to best develop insight, and cultivate a strong sense of self and enriching relationships. However, I am an integrative therapist and so I ensure that the therapy approaches we use are catered to you and can encourage understanding, acceptance, and change in ways that best support your therapy needs.

Together, we will develop an understanding of who you are and the core aspects underlying what has brought you to therapy, to encourage deeper long-term healing. I believe that building insight and making connections between the past and present can help guide us towards understanding, acceptance, and change. As such, we will spend time delving into your family background, social relationships, and childhood experiences.
