Personal Approach: The most crucial element in enhancing my effectiveness as a therapist has been participating in therapy myself. The most profound changes have come through extended sessions and intensives, which are the services I provide. Investing ample time, focus, and energy enables accelerated healing. Some clients have remarked that a single 3-hour intensive felt equivalent to years of traditional therapy. By adopting a multifaceted, holistic approach and creating ideal conditions for brain-body healing, I've witnessed remarkable transformations. As C.S. Lewis wisely said, “You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.” This belief guides my work, reminding us it’s never too late to transform our story and create a brighter future.

About Me: I find joy in deep, meaningful conversations, building connections, and sharing laughter. I treasure time with my dogs, capturing nature with my camera, and hiking to waterfalls. Additionally, I find spirituality and personal development deeply fulfilling. On a lighter note, I enjoy binge-watching shows with my husband, chatting with my pets, and singing loudly to songs I’m currently obsessed with, often on repeat in my car.
