The approach I take is a bottom-up Psychodynamic approach.

As your therapist, my primary commitment is to help you succeed in the ways that matter to you. Together, we’ll explore your underlying thoughts, feelings, and desires and consider how they may be influencing your life. We’ll look honestly at what is working and what isn’t. I’ll offer insight, guidance, and support while respecting your pace and where you are in the process. Our work will focus on creating meaningful, lasting change that reflects what matters most to you.

I believe therapy is a collaborative journey toward healing, growth, and lasting change. My goal is to create a warm, supportive, and nonjudgmental space where you feel safe exploring your experiences, gaining insight, and building practical tools to navigate life's challenges.
