Welcome to my profile! I’m passionate about helping clients who have faced challenges in their previous therapy experiences and are ready to embark on the next step in their healing journey. If you have a baseline of coping skills and mental health awareness but struggle to address the root causes of your issues or make lasting changes, I’m here to support you.
One area I specialize in is working with clients who struggle with self-compassion and self-worth. I understand how difficult it can be to navigate life when you feel disconnected from yourself and lack a sense of worthiness. Together, we’ll explore strategies to cultivate self-compassion and develop a stronger sense of self-worth, empowering you to live a more fulfilling life.
Additionally, I have extensive experience in addressing addiction and compulsive behavioral problems. I believe in a holistic approach to addiction, integrating evidence-based modalities to help you break free from destructive patterns. By combining mindfulness-based cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, psycho-dynamic approaches, and trauma-informed modalities such as Internal Family Systems (IFS), Somatic Experiencing, Parts Work, and Inner Child Work, we can delve into the underlying factors contributing to your struggles and support you in making sustainable changes.
In our therapeutic journey together, I strive to create a safe and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences. I believe that the therapeutic relationship is a collaborative partnership, and I will be there to listen, support, and guide you through your unique process of healing and growth.
If you’re ready to take the next step towards creating positive change in your life, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can work towards uncovering the barriers that have held you back and develop strategies to help you thrive. I look forward to being a part of your transformative journey.
