In meeting me you will find that I use an integrative style of therapy. This means that to achieve your goals you can expect me to use interventions specifically tailored to your needs. To my core, I am an attachment therapist who will sit with you through difficult emotions and honor your experiences while challenging unhelpful beliefs and providing very practical tools to help you heal. I look forward to meeting you and witnessing you grow into the person you were created to be!
