My Approach to Helping
Hello beautiful soul, and welcome. I’m so glad you’re here. If you’re considering therapy, it probably means you’re ready to invest in yourself and create meaningful change in your life. That’s a courageous step, and I’m honored to support you on this journey.
My approach to therapy is warm, compassionate, and deeply authentic. I believe that healing happens when we feel safe, seen, and supported, so I create a space where you can be fully yourself without judgment. I take a mindful and holistic approach, meaning I don’t just focus on the challenges you’re facing, I honor your strengths, your values, and the unique story that makes you who you are.
Together, we’ll explore what’s holding you back, uncover your innate wisdom, and empower you to move forward in a way that feels true to you.
I specialize in working with people who tend to prioritize others’ needs above their own, those navigating anxiety or Obsessive Compulsion (OCD), and anyone going through life stage transitions. Many of my clients are working to break free from old patterns, like people-pleasing, perfectionism, or feeling stuck in cycles of worry or self-doubt. If that sounds like you, you’re in the right place. I know how overwhelming it can feel to juggle life’s demands while trying to stay connected to yourself, and I’m here to help you find balance, clarity, and peace.
When we work together, you can expect a supportive and collaborative relationship. I’ll meet you where you are, tailoring our sessions to what you need most, whether that’s practical tools to manage anxiety, gentle guidance to set boundaries, or space to process and reflect. I’ll challenge you when it’s helpful and offer insights to help you see things from a fresh perspective, but I’ll always follow your pace and respect your boundaries. My goal is to help you feel more empowered, confident, and grounded—not just in therapy, but in your everyday life.
If you’re ready to start, or if you’re curious to learn more, I’d love to connect and see if we’re a good fit. Therapy is a partnership, and finding the right therapist is an important step. You deserve to work with someone who understands and supports you fully. I offer a free 30-minute consultation for anyone looking to explore more details about my services and therapeutic style.
More Info About My Practice
One thing that sets my approach apart is my own commitment to living a holistic and balanced life. As a therapist, I don’t just teach strategies and offer insights—I live by them, too. I believe it’s important to model the practices I recommend, which means I actively engage in my own therapeutic work and use mindfulness and self-reflection in my daily life. I’ve experienced firsthand the transformative power of setting boundaries, cultivating self-compassion, and prioritizing wellness, and I bring that lived experience into the work we do together.
For me, therapy isn’t just a profession, it’s a way of life. I am dedicated to continually growing as a person and as a therapist, and I approach our sessions with authenticity, presence, and an open heart. This dedication helps me stay grounded and connected, so I can offer you a therapeutic experience that is deeply compassionate and genuinely effective.
If you’re ready to start your journey toward healing and growth, I’m here to walk alongside you. Together, we’ll work to help you feel more empowered, balanced, and at peace, not just in therapy, but in every aspect of your life.
What I Love about Being a Psychotherapist
What I love most about being a therapist is the privilege of witnessing someone?s growth and transformation up close. It?s truly inspiring to have a front-row seat to the courage, resilience, and determination my clients show as they navigate their journeys. Watching someone move from feeling stuck or overwhelmed to discovering their inner strength and making meaningful changes is one of the most rewarding experiences I can imagine. I?m continually awed by the human capacity for healing and growth, and I feel honored to be a part of that process. Every step my clients take?no matter how small?reminds me of the power of this work and fuels my passion to continue supporting others in finding their own paths to fulfillment and peace.
On the Fence About Going to Therapy?
Therapy is one of the most meaningful investments you can make in yourself. It?s also important to know that therapy is for everyone! You don?t need to wait until you?re in crisis to reach out. Sometimes, therapy is about having a place to reflect, prioritize yourself, and learn new ways to handle life?s challenges before they become overwhelming. If you?ve ever thought, I wish I could talk to someone who really gets it, or I want to change, but I?m not sure where to start, that might be your inner voice nudging you toward support. Therapy isn?t about having all the answers; it?s about being open to exploring what?s possible with someone who?s there to guide and encourage you every step of the way. If this resonates with you, it might be the perfect time to begin your journey.
Had a Negative Therapy Experience?
If you?ve had a bad experience in therapy before, I want to acknowledge how difficult and disappointing that can be. It takes courage to reach out for help, and it?s disheartening when the experience doesn?t feel supportive or healing. Please know that one negative experience doesn?t mean all therapy will feel the same. Every therapist is different, and finding someone who truly listens, understands, and respects your journey can make all the difference. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, valued, and empowered to be your authentic self. I approach our work together with compassion, curiosity, and a commitment to meeting you where you are. You deserve a therapeutic relationship that feels collaborative and affirming, and I?m here to help rebuild your trust in the process and make this experience one that truly supports your healing and growth.
