I take a structured, goal-oriented approach to help clients make lasting changes in their lives. I focus on what is meaningful to my clients—whether that’s improving relationships, reducing anxiety, building confidence, or navigating life transitions.
My work draws from evidence-based approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to support meaningful growth. I also integrate insights from Attachment Theory, the Enneagram, and Love Languages to deepen self-awareness and help clients better understand their patterns in relationships and daily life. My goal is to offer practical tools and compassionate guidance.
