The Heart Behind My Work

My path to becoming a therapist began with my own healing. Years ago, I joined a women’s support group where, for the first time, I felt truly safe to speak about my experiences and begin to process the traumas I had carried for so long. That space, held with compassion and care by someone I trusted, changed everything for me. It was through that experience that I realized I wanted to offer others the same kind of support: a place where they can feel seen, safe, and never alone in their pain.

I don’t just talk the talk, I walk the walk. The work I do with clients is deeply informed by my own healing journey. I believe in the process because I live it. I know that healing is possible when we are met with understanding, when we reconnect with our inner selves, and when we learn to hold our own stories with compassion.

Outside of the therapy room, I’m a mother to a beautiful and spirited daughter. Being a parent has profoundly shaped how I view emotional development, attachment, and the power of presence. I take parenting seriously, not in a perfectionist way, but in a conscious, loving way.

Nature is my sanctuary. You can often find me hiking or spending time in any green space that lets me breathe deeper and connect with what matters. Being outdoors reminds me of the healing rhythms of life: growth, stillness, movement, and renewal - all things I try to bring into my work as a therapist.
