I am a seasoned therapist specializing in women's issues and anxiety, utilizing a relational and attachment-focused approach. In our collaborative and empathetic therapeutic space, my goal is to guide you towards balance, peace, increased self-awareness, and the profound journey of self-acceptance and self-love. Together, we will navigate challenges, fostering healing and empowering you to create your own path to lasting well-being.
The first session is a pivotal and collaborative step in your therapeutic journey. It's an opportunity for us to get to know each other, establish a foundation of trust, and outline the goals and focus of our work together. I'll provide an introduction to my therapeutic approach and invite you to share some background information about yourself. This may include your reasons for seeking therapy, relevant life experiences, and any specific goals you have in mind. Throughout the session, I encourage you to ask any questions or raise concerns you may have about the therapeutic process. Open communication is essential, and your comfort is a top priority. We'll conclude the session by discussing the frequency of our meetings, confidentiality, and any additional logistical details. You'll leave with a clear understanding of what to expect in future sessions.
My years of experience serve as a foundation for my practice, providing a wealth of knowledge and insight.

Attentiveness and active listening are paramount in my sessions, allowing for a deep exploration of thoughts and emotions. I pride myself on being non-judgmental, fostering an atmosphere where clients feel safe to share openly. I value the power of silence, recognizing it as a space for reflection and introspection. Finally.. TRUST is fundamental in my practice—I deeply trust in my clients' ability to know themselves and their needs. Together, these strengths create a therapeutic alliance focused on empowerment, growth, and the journey toward well-being.
