Description
Healing isn’t selfish—it’s about honesty with yourself and others. In therapy, we explore the roots of people-pleasing, how it once kept you safe, and how it now impacts your relationships. Together, we examine the emotional, physical, and mental costs of always prioritizing others and practice setting boundaries with confidence. My approach integrates humanistic and existential perspectives with depth psychology, emotion-focused, Gestalt, and somatic modalities. I offer a safe, trusting space to explore, feel, and grow toward your most authentic self.
