Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you—it’s about understanding and deepening your relationship with yourself. I believe it works best when it feels authentic and natural. My approach centers on exploring your patterns, slowing down to understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and learning to respond to life rather than react. I work with people who feel stuck in their thoughts, anxious in relationships, or caught in patterns they want to change. Together, we’ll reduce overwhelm, build boundaries, and help you find your voice.
