My Approach in Practice

In our sessions, I might invite you to pause and check in with your body, noticing any sensations or emotions present in the moment. From there, we could explore what comes up using Internal Family Systems, perhaps meeting and listening to different parts of yourself with curiosity and compassion. Some days, we might use art-making or narrative exercises to give voice to experiences that feel difficult to put into words. Other times, somatic grounding or breathing practices can help you feel safe and regulated before moving into deeper work. My goal is to co-create a space where you feel supported to explore at your own pace, with room for both vulnerability and growth.

How We Can Work Together

Clients often reach out when they are:

  • Facing significant life changes and want to build stability and supportive routines.

  • Exploring or reconnecting with their identity, including cultural roots, values, and self-understanding.

  • Feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns and wanting to uncover triggers and practice new ways of responding.

  • Living with the effects of trauma or dissociation and seeking skills for nervous system regulation and resilience.

  • Navigating eating disorders or disordered eating and wanting a more compassionate, sustainable relationship with food and their body.

No matter the reason, my focus is on creating a collaborative process that moves at your pace and honors your lived experience.
