In my work, I take an integrative approach, blending interpersonal, psychodynamic, and cognitive behavioral perspectives with an emphasis on collaboration, authenticity, and connection. I’m interested in helping clients understand patterns that influence how they relate to themselves and others, while developing practical tools to navigate challenges and create meaningful change.
