Areas of Focus
Grounded in the strength-based approach, my practice celebrates each client's unique strengths and capabilities. I truly believe everyone—individuals, couples, or families—has the inherent power to rise above their challenges, fostering resilience and a sense of empowerment along the way.
I offer a therapeutic approach customized to your unique needs and goals. With compassionate listening and empathetic understanding, my aim is to guide you towards enriched personal growth and well-being.
For individuals, I offer a safe space and invite you to explore your inner world, focusing on different aspects of your being. Through our sessions, we'll identify and nurture your internal resources—like self-compassion and resilience—helping you build confidence in facing life's trials. Together, we'll craft effective strategies to promote healing, ultimately leading to a deeper sense of self-acceptance.
In working with couples and families, my goal is to help you build secure, supportive bonds. I assist you in identifying positive emotional experiences and understanding detrimental interaction patterns. By doing so, we can reshape these patterns to promote emotional awareness and understanding, enhancing your communication and conflict resolution skills.
I am unwaveringly committed to your journey towards emotional and relational health, and I look forward to the chance to work with you.
