Therapy style
I believe that a strong therapeutic relationship is built on collaboration, honesty, and the belief that change is possible. I am certified as a Perinatal Mental Health practitioner and enjoy working with clients experiencing life transitions, anxiety, symptoms of depression, and grief. My approach is relational, focusing on mutual participation and engagement in the therapeutic space to better understand and develop the capacity for meaningful connection and engagement with others. I also work psychodynamically and am trained in CBT, mindfulness, and trauma-focused intervention.
