Therapy Style

At the heart of my work is a commitment to co-creating a therapeutic space where healing, curiosity, and growth can be cultivated. I draw from psychodynamic and relational frameworks, while also incorporating modalities such as CBT and ACT to tailor the therapy to match your needs and preferences.

Philosophy

Being a therapist, the aspect I find most meaningful in my work is co-creating a therapeutic space that fosters the expansion of the mind, the healing of trauma, along with the development of new relational and behavioral patterns that allow you to establish a healthy fulfilling relationship, both with others and within yourself.
