My approach to counseling is focused on getting to the root of patterns that may be keeping you stuck. Anxiety, overwhelm, perfectionism, relationship difficulties, or feeling disconnected from yourself often make sense when we understand the experiences, beliefs, and nervous-system responses that shaped them.
I work collaboratively with clients to create a thoughtful, compassionate, and practical space. Our work may include exploring present-day patterns, understanding how earlier experiences continue to influence your responses, and developing new ways of relating to yourself and the challenges in your life.
My background in counseling allows me to draw on approaches including EMDR, CBT, and SFBT-informed work, tailoring each session to the individual rather than following a one-size-fits-all formula.
I especially enjoy working with people who are insightful and capable, but recognize that understanding something intellectually doesn't necessarily change how they feel or respond. Therapy can help bridge that gap.
The goal is not simply to manage symptoms. It is to understand yourself more deeply, resolve what is ready to be resolved, and create greater freedom in how you move through your life.
