Style & Approach
Clients describe me as warm and kind with a direct approach. I practice kindness with honesty and honesty with kindness. I respect that you are the expert on your own life and we work together to find where you are feeling stuck, anxious, or fearful. I ask many questions to gain clarity on your narrative, with this we can put the puzzle pieces together.

- Collaborative
- Self-Compassion
- Unconditional Positive Regard
- Somatic Experiencing
- Emotional Literacy
- Thought Exploration and Strategies
- Feminist Approach
- Mindfulness
