Welcome, dear stranger, fellow wanderer, on this step of your personal journey to healing and fulfillment.

I strive to support all those who want to find a meaningful and mindful approach to healing through strengthening their compassion for themselves. None of us is broken, hence none of us can be fixed. And, sometimes we feel lost on the way. In my role, I can assist you to access your inner wisdom and activate your innate abilities to heal.. Together, you will learn how to become aware of your emotional states without being caught in them, how to approach suffering with curiosity rather than shame, fear, or guilt, and how to hold yourself with a compassionate heart.

I have a passion for working with adults and adolescents of all gender and cultural identities who are survivors of various forms of trauma, are challenged by depressive or anxiety-related symptoms, and struggle to find meaning in their lives. I have helped individuals explore their unique intersectional identities and cope with minority stress. I also have experience providing pre-marital and relational counseling to couples who face relational difficulties as well as families who navigate internal and external dynamics.

My approach to therapy is

- Holistic: Healing can be a complex, often life-long process. To support you in this process, I utilize various methods of care to stimulate mental, physical, relational, and spiritual wellbeing.

- Systemic: Trauma tends to be multigenerational and intergenerational. Whether I see you for individual, couples, or family therapy, it is helpful to take into account your surroundings’ impact on your state of mind. Together we will draw attention to past conditioning and the often unbidden ways in which it arises in your present, creating discord and disconnect.

- Client-centered & strength-based: Our sessions will be tailored to your individual needs while utilizing your unique strengths, whether they be personal, professional, or relational. -

-Non-pathologizing: Rather than focusing solely on a person’s mental health diagnosis, I conceptualize symptoms as a body’s response to trauma or soul wounds. You are not your problem.

- Based on compassion and awareness: Our approach at the CFMR is based on the concept of developing compassionate awareness to individuals’ challenges and past trauma to foster positive change and healing.
