During difficult times, it's especially important to remember that we don’t have to face challenges alone. In my work with clients, I take a non-judgmental approach, striving to truly understand your story and build a strong, empathetic therapeutic relationship. I often use strength-based practices that highlight what makes each client unique, helping you build confidence and a sense of autonomy.

One tool I frequently use is motivational interviewing, which supports goal exploration and encourages taking meaningful steps toward them. I see myself as a guide—someone who can help illuminate the path through struggles such as anxiety, anger, depression, addiction, and trauma.

Much of my experience  is with neurodivergent individuals and children who may find it difficult to express themselves with words. For these clients, it can be especially challenging to communicate their needs in ways that feel both safe and understood. I encourage them to use the forms of expression that feel most natural to them. For children, this often means using play or art instead of spoken language. With adults, I work to find a communication style that suits their preferences—just as people have different tastes in food, they also differ in how they share their thoughts and emotions.

Ultimately, my goal is to create a space where you feel safe enough to express your most vulnerable thoughts and empowered to explore new ways of growing.
