If this long-term depth-oriented approach speaks to you, I invite you to arrange a consultation.
My approach to my clinical work
My practice is dedicated to the steady, intentional work of understanding the enduring weight of complex trauma, adverse childhood experiences and other deeply rooted dynamics that are getting in your way. This is a commitment to long-term healing—a spiritual and psychological inquiry into the deeply-seated layers that require more than brief intervention.
Our sessions are attuned to the symbolic aspects of your journey, including dreams and unconscious motivations. We will also focus on the interpersonal dynamics that might be emerging between us in our sessions as a way to better understand how similar patterns might be showing up in your daily life, providing an opportunity to better understand them. These insights can open a window to new possibilities that align with your goals.
This work relies on a steady, reliable rhythm to develop authentic trust. I offer an unhurried sanctuary where your growth unfolds naturally. Every breakthrough we achieve is grounded in your genuine sense of self, ensuring that the progress you make is both resilient and deeply integrated into your own reality. If this way of working resonates with you, I invite you to reach out to arrange a consultation.

Specialized Therapy Focus
Every story is valuable. I am here to listen and hold space for your personal history with total respect.
Managing Anxiety & Burnout
If persistent worry or deep sadness is draining your energy, therapy can provide a path back to yourself. We investigate the roots of your emotional stress together, helping you find a calmer, more self-compassionate way to navigate the world.
Healing From Early Adversity
Past hardships often shape how safe we feel as adults. My practice is designed to help you process these difficult memories, allowing you to build a sturdy internal foundation that no longer feels defined by previous trauma.
Attachment & Relationship Work
Recurring struggles in your connections often indicate early emotional wounds. I provide a supportive environment to explore the coping mechanisms and personality traits that have emerged over time, so that you can work on building healthy and sustainable relationships.
Breaking Habits & Addictions
Addictive and compulsive behaviors often start as survival tactics to manage internal pain. Our sessions will draw on your inner resources to help you build resilience and imagine new ways of coping.
Loss and Life Transitions
Moving through grief or significant life changes can leave you feeling untethered. I can support you in finding resilience and meaning in the midst of this change.
Personal Identity & Self-Worth
Shame can often quiet your internal truth. Our goal is to help you to process your relationship to your self-worth, so that you can emerge with greater self-acceptance and compassion towards yourself.
Integration of Spirituality
Your spiritual beliefs or quest for meaning are highly valued in our work together. Whether with reference to your spiritual tradition or a more fluid sense of spirituality, we can comfortably integrate it in our sessions.
Foundations of Self-Advocacy
We work on setting healthy boundaries and building your internal confidence in interpersonal relationships, giving you the tools to express your needs clearly and foster mutual respect in all areas of your social and personal life.
If these concerns feel familiar to you, I invite you to contact me to discuss how we might work together. Your are also welcomed to get in contact with me if your issues do not fit neatly into the above categories, so that we can determine whether I could be of support to you.
How I Approach Therapy
My practice is grounded in psychodynamic and Jungian-oriented principles, where we seek to understand how past experiences have shaped who you are today. Our sessions create a space to notice and understand the impact of previous relational wounds so that you can chart a path towards a more adaptive and fulfilled version of yourself.
In our trauma-informed sessions, we go beyond symptoms to the deeper unconscious motivations. We will also explore the dreams that emerge in your sleep as a way to connect with this material. By merging clinical expertise with a focus on spiritual mindfulness, I offer a stable and calm environment where you can let go of old burdens and build a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling to you.
I invite you to schedule a consultation to see if this depth-oriented, relational way of working is the right fit for your needs.
