It’s not about starting over—it’s about reclaiming what’s always been within you.
My methods
As a person-centered therapist, my approach is warm, flexible, and entirely focused on your goals. I use a range of proven methods, including Trauma-informed, Mindfulness-Based Interventions like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Mindful Hypnotherapy, along with Solution-Focused Therapy, Problem-Solving Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing.
Mindfulness-Based Therapies
Proven methods that work by cultivating awareness, presence and self compassion so you can find balance, clarity, and a deeper sense of well-being.
Mindful Hypnotherapy
This approach helps you access a calm, focused state where positive change can take root. Deepen self-awareness, reframe unhelpful thought patterns, and reclaim your strength.
Trauma Informed
A safe, compassionate space for healing. With a deep understanding of how trauma impacts the mind and body.
Motivational Interviewing
A research backed way of talking about change and growth to strengthen your own motivation and commitment. Together, we’ll explore the strengths and possibilities already within you.
