I believe you are the expert of your own life. My focus is on creating a space where you feel safe, valued, and free to explore your emotions without judgment. Whether you're navigating trauma, life transitions, or the weight of self-doubt, my commitment is to help you reconnect with your inner resilience and wisdom. This isn’t about fixing you—because you aren’t broken. It’s about empowering you: to honor your feelings, reclaim your confidence, and move forward in ways that align with your truth. Your goals, your pace, your voice—they guide every step. No matter where you are in your journey, I’m here to remind you: You are capable. You matter. And you don’t have to do this alone.
What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?
Your first session with me is all about you—your story, your needs, and the hopes you carry into this space. There’s no pressure to "figure it all out" right away; this is a time for us to connect, for you to share what feels comfortable, and for me to listen with warmth and curiosity. Together, we’ll gently explore what brought you here—whether it’s the weight of chronic illness, the echoes of trauma, or simply feeling stuck—and begin mapping out what healing might look like for you. My role isn’t to rush or direct you, but to offer compassion, ask thoughtful questions, and help you feel truly seen. By the end of our time, my hope is that you leave feeling a little lighter, a little more hopeful, and with a clearer sense of how we can walk forward together. You’re not alone here. 💛
Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.
My greatest strength lies in my ability to truly see and hold space for you—exactly as you are. With deep empathy and unwavering presence, I create a sanctuary where your struggles, fears, and hopes are met not with judgment, but with compassionate curiosity. I believe in the power of gentle guidance—helping you uncover your own wisdom, resilience, and capacity for healing, even when you struggle to believe in it yourself. Whether navigating the complexities of chronic illness, trauma, or life’s overwhelming transitions, I walk beside you with patience, authenticity, and a steadfast commitment to your goals. My gift is helping you feel less alone in the hard moments and more empowered to rewrite your story with courage and self-compassion.
Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.
As a person-centered therapist specializing in chronic illness and trauma, I work best with individuals who are navigating the emotional and physical complexities of long-term health challenges, medical trauma, or sudden life-altering diagnoses. My approach is tailored for those who feel exhausted by the fight to be heard—whether by the medical system, their own inner critic, or a world that doesn’t always understand invisible pain. If you’re struggling with grief over lost abilities, anxiety about an uncertain future, or the isolation that often accompanies chronic conditions, I offer a space where your experiences are honored without judgment. Together, we’ll focus on rebuilding trust in your body, reclaiming a sense of agency, and fostering resilience—not in spite of your struggles, but through them. My deepest hope is to help you move from survival toward a life that feels meaningful, even on the hardest days.
