My Approach

In my work with clients, I believe in a truly bespoke approach. Each person’s path is unique, so together, we craft a therapeutic journey that is tailored specifically to their needs, goals, and experiences. As partners in this process, my client and I work as a team to explore the past, present, and future, creating space for new insights and possibilities. We try out different exercises, experiment with various therapeutic methods, and discover together what resonates most deeply. My sessions are designed to be interactive; they require the client’s active participation, and I encourage openness and engagement so that each session becomes a stepping stone toward real change.

My goal is for clients to leave our sessions—whether in person or online—with practical tools and skills they can apply in their daily lives. I believe that learning to live a more fulfilling life, to understand oneself better, and to develop healthier relationships is much like learning a new language. It takes guidance, practice, patience, and dedication. The frameworks that guide my work are rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), mindfulness practices, and yoga philosophy, blending evidence-based strategies with holistic elements to support each client’s well-being.

My values as a therapist are foundational to my practice. Building a relationship of trust and safety is essential, as clients need to feel secure to fully open up and explore. I bring compassion and curiosity into each session, meeting clients wherever they are with empathy and a genuine interest in their stories and perspectives. I also deeply value integrity and respect—every client’s experience is honored and respected without judgment, and I hold the highest standards of confidentiality and professionalism. Finally, I believe in empowerment: my role is to help clients cultivate resilience and self-compassion, guiding them to trust in their own inner strength as they create meaningful, lasting change in their lives.
