Instead of “What is wrong with you?" Try "What happened to you?" My clinical philosophy is grounded in the belief that our emotional, psychological, and, oftentimes, physical symptoms are rooted in the traumatic underpinnings that have happened throughout our lives. Have you ever wondered, “Why did I do that or say that?” Do you feel that no matter how often you try to make changes in your life, they fail to materialize? As human beings, we are storytellers who are interconnected to the world around us. As the great philosopher said, “Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards..” Søren Kierkegaard.
Human existence is a complex and nuanced tapestry woven with threads of both joy and sorrow. We all experience suffering differently and our pain is always valid. I am here to help you embrace your life, body, and experiences with greater fullness. I strive to create a judgment-free space where you can feel safe, heard, and empowered.
Early on, we think of therapy as a set of techniques, but later, we come to see therapy as an experience we share. The research shows that the most crucial counseling factor is the relationship between you and your therapist. That is why I offer a free consultation, where we can meet in person, virtually, or by phone. I look forward to meeting you, be well.
