My approach to therapy is grounded in the belief that healing and growth happen in the context of relationship — with ourselves, with others, and within the therapeutic space. In my work with clients, I draw from several guiding lenses:

• Relational: Growth happens when we feel safe enough to show up as we are.

• Trauma-Informed: Our stories live in our nervous systems, not just our memories.

• Attachment-Based: How we learned to seek comfort, safety, and connection early in life continues to shape how we show up, love, and protect ourselves in adult relationships.

• LGBTQIA+ Affirming: Your truth belongs. Your wholeness matters. Your identity is not up for debate.

• Neuro-Affirming: By understanding and incorporating neurodiversity into our work, we are able to approach sessions in a way that actually works for the brains and bodies we have now.

• Somatic: Your body remembers. We listen to it.
