About me

As a Gestalt therapist, I focus on creating a supportive and honest environment where we can explore your emotions and experiences in a grounded way. My approach is rooted in presence and active listening, with a focus on what you need in the moment to move forward. I believe in the power of understanding your personal narrative and its impact on how you live today. I am trained in Compassionate Inquiry, a trauma-informed approach developed by Dr. Gabor Maté and Sat Dharam, which helps us understand the root causes of your experiences. By bringing compassion to your journey, we can gently uncover how past events shape present-day behavior and beliefs. Additionally, I integrate bioenergetic techniques to work with both mind and body, helping you engage with your emotions in a holistic way.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
Body therapyRecommended for those who want to connect their mind and body to release stress or trauma through physical sensations and movement.
Gestalt therapyRecommended for those who want to focus on the present and take responsibility for their feelings and actions to promote personal growth.
Trauma Informed CareRecommended for those who have experienced trauma and need a safe, supportive space to heal at their own pace.
I approach therapy from a Gestalt perspective, focusing on the present moment and how it shapes your experience. I work collaboratively with you to explore your emotions, thoughts, and behaviors, paying close attention to patterns that may be limiting your growth. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable and supported as you explore what’s working and what’s not in your life. In addition to Gestalt therapy, I incorporate Compassionate Inquiry, a trauma-informed approach that helps us understand the deeper roots of your experiences with compassion. This method allows us to gently explore how past events influence your present behavior and emotional state, helping you develop more awareness and choice in how you respond. I also use bioenergetic techniques to work with the body, supporting the integration of emotions and experiences on both a mental and physical level. My therapeutic style is grounded in active listening, empathy, and practical support. I aim to meet you where you are, working at your pace to help you gain clarity and insight, build stronger emotional resilience, and create healthier patterns of thinking and behavior. Whether you’re dealing with life transitions, emotional challenges, or the impact of past trauma, I’m here to help you navigate it with understanding and care.
