Therapy style
As a healing-centered trauma-competent therapist, I work primarily with women and gender-diverse individuals. We will focus on the exploration of self and identity during challenging times. We will learn and practice strengths-based healing tools for coping and navigating challenges that foster personal growth. I help individuals build resilience, enhance self-awareness, and cultivate the inner strength needed to navigate life from a healing and grounded sense of self.
I expect clients to be engaged during our sessions, be open to reflective growth, and utilize assignments tailored to their unique needs and goals.
