HOLISTIC. Trauma-informed. liberation-oriented. affirmative. non-judgemental.
theoretical orientations
client-centered.
I place emphasis on the client’s autonomy, with a core belief that the client is the true expert of their own life and is capable of guiding the direction of the therapy process.
RELATIONAL.
I recognize relationships as essential to psychological well-being, often leveraging the therapeutic relationship to address challenges, foster self-awareness, and inspire change.
somatic.
I am grounded in the belief that the body and mind are deeply interconnected, and emotional experiences, particularly trauma, are often stored in the body. By addressing physical sensations, movements, and patterns alongside thoughts and emotions, I prioritize nervous system regulation and holistic healing.
PSYCHODYNAMIC.
I believe that unconscious material and unresolved conflicts from past relationships are key to addressing and understanding present-day challenges.
ECLECTIC.
I often integrate a variety of theoretical approaches and techniques, customizing them to meet the unique needs of each client. Depending on what suits the individual, I may draw from:
Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)
Attachment-Based Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP)
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
Interpersonal Psychotherapy
Narrative Therapy
