My work is informed by:

  • Humanistic, client-centered and integrative

  • Eastern & Western philosophies

  • Trauma-informed & culturally attuned frameworks

  • Mindfulness & somatic awareness

  • Gottman Method Couples Therapy:

    • Participated in Certification Consultation (Training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy Level I &II)

  • Imago Relationship Therapy

  • Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT)

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS) / Parts work

    • The Mind is Naturally Multiple: IFS works through a lens that the mind isn't a single unit but a system of various parts. 

    • Parts as Subpersonalities: These are distinct internal aspects of the self, like a "family" within. 

    • Burdens: Parts carry burdens – extreme beliefs, emotions, or memories from past traumas – that cause them to get stuck in extreme roles. 

    • The Self: Everyone has a core "Self" that is wise, compassionate, and capable of leading the internal system. 

Personal Note:
This work is not just professional for me—it’s personal. I’ve witnessed the ways trauma can be passed down, and how powerful it is when we interrupt that cycle.

It’s an honor to support others on their path home to themselves.
