Individual Therapy
Life is rarely linear, and whether you are navigating a difficult transition, managing emotional distress, or seeking to heal from past wounds, you deserve a space that is as dynamic as the challenges you face. In our sessions, I provide a compassionate, evidence-based approach tailored specifically to your goals, needs, and personal history.

My Approach
I believe that sustainable change requires both insight and action. I integrate Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) to help you process deep-seated emotions and secure your internal sense of safety, while utilizing CBT-based methods to identify and reshape the thought patterns that keep you stuck. To ensure you have practical tools for the day-to-day, we will also incorporate DBT-based distress tolerance skills, empowering you to navigate high-stress moments with clarity and resilience rather than overwhelm.

Areas of Focus
My practice is dedicated to helping clients navigate the complexities of their lives and inner worlds, including:
-
Life Transitions: Whether you are navigating career changes, the transition to college, medical issues or diagnoses, injury, relocation, divorce, loss of a loved one, or the empty nest.
-
Grief & Loss: Providing space for the many ways loss manifests, including separation and life-altering change.
-
Trauma & Attachment: Healing from deep-seated wounds and reshaping the way you relate to yourself and others.
-
Emotional Well-being: Support for managing anxiety, depression, PTSD, and the heavy burdens of shame, guilt, and regret.
-
Empowerment & Relational Growth: Developing healthy boundaries, cultivating self-advocacy, strengthening self-esteem, and improving communication.
Whether you are looking to manage acute issues or are ready to do the deeper work of healing and growth, I am here to provide a structured but flexible, holistic approach that focuses on you as a whole human over symptoms or diagnoses,in a collaborative and supportive partnership tailored to your unique journey.
