Working With Me

I believe wholeheartedly in the importance of the client-therapist relationship. Working together creates a grounded, compassionate space where your pace and story are respected.

Much of the work is about reclaiming parts of yourself that have been overshadowed by trauma, stress, or ingrained patterns.

  • “There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.” —

    Maya Angelou (Poet, Writer, Activist)

  • “The relationship is the therapy.”

    Irvin Yalom (Existential Psychotherapy)

  • “The essence of trauma is disconnection—from ourselves, from others, and from the world.”

    Gabor Maté (Trauma & Compassionate Inquiry)

  • “When someone really hears you without passing judgment on you, without trying to take responsibility for you, without trying to mold you, it feels damn good.”

    Carl Rogers (Person-Centered Therapy)
