About Me
My Approach
In therapy, I combine emotional depth with practical tools that support clarity, steadiness, and sustainable change.
My approach brings together presence and structure. Rather than focusing only on interpretation or insight, we stay with what is happening in the moment — emotions, bodily responses, relational patterns, while also drawing on psychoeducation and structured techniques when helpful.
Working with trauma, attachment wounds, or long-standing instability requires both openness and containment.
At times, this means slowing down and staying with what is emerging. At other times, it involves structure, psychoeducation, or practical tools that support regulation and clarity. The pacing is collaborative and responsive.
My practice is supported by regular supervision and continued training. I remain committed to ethical reflection and ongoing professional growth.
Counseling
Common themes people bring
People often come to therapy navigating periods of emotional complexity or transition — when something no longer feels aligned or sustainable. This may include heightened sensitivity, confusion, disconnection, or deeper questioning.
Themes that often appear in therapy include:
It is not necessary to have a clear story or goal in order to begin.
Therapy Shaped by Migration, Identity, and Cultural Transition
Living through migration and collective rupture has shaped my understanding of displacement, navigating identity shifts, and rebuilding a sense of continuity. These experiences inform how I sit with themes of belonging, cultural transition, and inherited history.
I offer LGBTQIA+-affirming psychotherapy for individuals and communities. My approach is grounded in respect, curiosity, and an awareness of how identity, safety, and relational dynamics intersect with mental health.
Psychedelic Integration
Alongside individual psychotherapy, I offer preparation and integration sessions for people engaging in psychedelic experiences. This work focuses on psychological grounding, meaning-making, and integrating insights into everyday life by translating the altered-state experience into embodied, lived change. I do not provide or administer substances.
