What guides my work:

Mission
My mission is to offer therapy that honors the whole person and supports people in reconnecting with themselves, trusting their own experience, and creating lives that feel more connected, meaningful, and authentically their own.

Values

• Safety, Autonomy & Collaboration. Meaningful work happens when we feel supported, respected, and able to move at a pace that feels manageable. You have a voice in what we explore and how we approach it, and your boundaries and choices are respected throughout our work. I bring my clinical training and perspective, while recognizing that you bring an expertise no one else can have: the experience of being you. Together, we shape therapy around what you need and what matters to you.

• The body is an ally. Our body’s responses often make sense in the context of what we’ve experienced. Rather than fighting or judging them, we approach them with curiosity and learn to understand what your body may need.

• Curiosity. I approach what you bring to therapy with curiosity rather than judgment. Before trying to change something, we need to understand it, including where it came from, what has shaped it, and what it might be telling us about what you need.

• Belonging. All of who you are is welcome here. I strive to create a space where people of all races, cultures, religions, socioeconomic backgrounds, sexual orientations, faiths, gender identities and expressions, body sizes, abilities, and neurotypes feel respected and affirmed. I value the identities and experiences you bring with you and approach them with openness, curiosity, and humility.

• Integrity. I take seriously the trust and responsibility that come with being your therapist. I’m committed to practicing ethically, continuing to learn through ongoing training and consultation, recognizing the limits of my expertise, and showing up thoughtfully and responsibly in our work together.
