My approach to counseling is centered on building a strong, trusting therapeutic relationship where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and respected. I will work collaboratively with you to create an individualized approach for treatment to help you tap into your unique abilities and strengths to meet your goals. I am formally trained in EMDR and use this, and other evidence-based methods, to help you understand how past experiences may be influencing your present thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. We move at a pace that feels safe and manageable, balancing insight-oriented work with practical tools you can use in your daily life. I will show up as authentic, compassionate, and non-judgmental, and by doing so I will support you in increasing emotional awareness, strengthening coping skills, and developing new ways of responding to stress and triggers. Some of my greatest joys are helping clients unlock their own potential and overcome life challenges through increased resilience and self-compassion.
