My Approach to Therapy

UPDATE 11-4-25: Accepting new clients! Please message me to set up a consultation. Living with chronic illness, loving someone who does, or navigating the aftermath of medical trauma can leave you feeling isolated, misunderstood, and disconnected from your body. I know this not just as a therapist—but as someone who has lived it. Born with a congenital heart condition, I’ve endured extensive testing, open-heart surgery, and the emotional toll that comes with it. I understand the fear of a body that feels unfamiliar, the exhaustion of self-advocacy, and the grief of adjusting to a life you didn’t plan for. Over the past decade, I’ve helped individuals from all walks of life rewrite old narratives, heal emotional wounds, and reclaim their worth. No matter what life has thrown at you, I offer a safe, nonjudgmental space where all parts of you are welcome. If you’re ready to walk your path with greater peace, I would be honored to walk beside you. It’s why I’m passionate about supporting others on similar paths—those living with chronic pain, health anxiety, autoimmune conditions, or the emotional impact of medical trauma and caregiving. You are not alone in this. Your story, your questions, and your healing deserve space and compassion. Together, we’ll gently process what you’ve carried, explore unresolved grief, and reconnect with your strength and inner wisdom. In a grounded, sacred space, we’ll nurture peace, clarity, and hope—even in the unknown. You deserve to be supported by someone who truly understands.
