About Me
My personal journey of inner healing led me to become a therapist. After years of following a traditional educational path, I felt drawn to explore a deeper, more integrated approach to healing—one that treats the mind and body as a unified whole. This shift led me to embrace Somatic work, where I guide clients in reconnecting with their bodies and emotions in a mindful and compassionate way.
At the heart of my practice are the principles of Mind-Body Holism, Unity, Organicity, Mindfulness, and Non-Violence. These values form the foundation of the work I do, helping clients heal from within. I don’t believe that healing is simply about techniques or tools—true healing happens within relationships. I believe that people are wounded in relationship, and it’s through safe, supportive, and compassionate relationships that they can find healing.
As a therapist, I walk alongside my clients, creating a nurturing space where they can explore their emotions, release past trauma, and reconnect with their authentic selves. My approach is not just about addressing symptoms but about facilitating deep, meaningful change that helps people live fuller, more connected lives.
Certifications & Expertise
At the heart of my practice is a commitment to continuous learning and professional development. I have undergone extensive training in a variety of therapeutic methods, each aimed at supporting emotional healing and personal growth. Here’s a brief overview of my certifications and how they shape my approach to therapy:
Education
Transactional Analysis 101
TA 101

Transactional Analysis (TA) is a method for understanding human behavior, communication, and emotional patterns. With TA 101 certification, I help clients recognize the dynamics in their relationships and communication styles, empowering them to build healthier connections in their personal and professional lives
Advanced Transactional Analysis (TA 202)

With advanced training in TA, I bring deeper therapeutic techniques to help clients explore complex emotional challenges and interpersonal issues. This certification allows me to offer tailored solutions for individuals and groups seeking deeper insight into their behaviors and interactions.
Transactional Analysis Practitioner (USATAA)

This certification equips me to provide advanced, structured therapeutic interventions, particularly for individuals dealing with relational trauma, emotional patterns, and communication struggles.
Certified ARTOLOGY Practitioner
Certified by AIMS Media
As a certified ARTOLOGY practitioner, I use creative and art-based techniques to help clients process emotions in a non-verbal, expressive way. This approach is especially beneficial for those who may find traditional talk therapy difficult and prefer a more holistic, creative path toward healing.
Coaching with Spirit & Internal Family Systems (IFS)
Certified by Copper Beech Institute
This certification allows me to guide clients through Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, a method that helps individuals reconnect with their various internal parts (e.g., the inner child, protector). By doing so, clients can gain greater self-awareness and resolve inner conflicts. IFS is particularly helpful for trauma, anxiety, and relationship issues.

Through advanced family therapy training, I work with individuals and families to improve communication, resolve conflicts, and heal from intergenerational trauma. This training helps me to guide families through challenging dynamics and foster healthier relationships.
Compassionate Inquiry Training (With Dr. Gabor Maté)
Certified by Compassionate Inquiry Program
As a certified Compassionate Inquiry practitioner, I use this trauma-informed approach developed by Dr. Gabor Maté to help clients uncover unconscious patterns and dynamics that influence their well-being. This method is especially effective for those dealing with adverse childhood experiences, addiction, and chronic physical pain. It encourages deep self-awareness and healing through gentle, compassionate exploration.
