I draw from person-centered and holistic approaches to create a safe, compassionate space for healing. I believe each individual holds the capacity for growth, and I honor that by fostering a therapeutic relationship built on empathy, authenticity, and unconditional positive regard. My work is holistic and attuned to the emotional, physical, and relational dimensions of wellness. I integrate CBT, mindfulness, psychoeducation, and lifestyle awareness to help clients build balance, resilience, and deeper self-understanding.
