Summary
As a psychotherapy trainee, I take a compassionate, relational approach, creating a safe and non-judgmental space where clients feel heard and supported. I'm mindful of how shame, identity, and intersectionality shape experiences, and I bring this awareness into my work. With a culturally informed perspective and a deep appreciation for the mind-body connection, I help clients explore their emotions and build a stronger sense of self.
