From The Heart Psychotherapy

Specialties

Everyone experiences life differently, but we can make sense of it together.

I provide a space in which you can talk through the challenges of life in the context of an empathic, caring, and safe relationship.

I approach my work as a therapist with relational and empathic listening, nonjudgmental exploration, interactive engagement, respectful challenge, and mutual participation in the therapeutic process.

My work is informed by a holistic approach that respects the relational, interconnected nature of human experience. Together, we will explore the physical, psychological, sociocultural, historical, and spiritual factors impacting your life.
