Nice to meet you

I work with individuals navigating trauma, systemic stressors, identity exploration, and life transitions. My style is collaborative and interactive, grounded in harm reduction and influenced by psychodynamic, mindfulness, somatic, and narrative approaches. I aim to create a space that feels both safe for reflection and expansive for exploration. I’m especially passionate about supporting people who are new to therapy and bringing a social justice lens to mental health work.
