Therapy style

“We don’t so much solve our problems as we outgrow them.” This Carl Jung quote reflects my philosophy as a holistic therapist. I guide clients toward growth and wholeness by integrating neurological trauma treatment, mindfulness, and nature-based practices. As an interfaith minister, I provide a safe, inclusive space for all spiritual paths, including metaphysical and earth-centered spirituality. Clients often describe our work as challenging yet deeply rewarding, fostering resilience, self-awareness, and a renewed connection to life.

Interests

I enjoy gardening, which connects me to nature and gives me a sense of grounding. Hiking allows me to explore the outdoors and recharge while playing video games offers a fun and creative way to unwind. When I’m not indulging in these activities, I’m often nose-deep in a book, always eager to learn or lose myself in a great story.
