Supporting Faith, Community, Mental Health, and Globally Minded Professionals
I partner with each client to provide evidence-informed therapy that integrates contemporary psychoanalytic and relational approaches, attachment- and parts-focused work, and practical strategies for stress regulation, relational boundaries, and sustainable lifestyle habits that takes into account individual attributes, values, needs, and specific contexts. I work with clients from a variety of professional backgrounds—including faith leaders, NGO and community workers, mental health professionals, and those engaged in cross-cultural or global work—helping them navigate the unique pressures and complexities of their work and personal lives. I also support clients navigating cross-cultural transitions, adapting to new organizational or community contexts, and managing the specific challenges of global or international work.
Areas of Focus
I support individuals navigating anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, trauma, and value or integrity conflicts, as well as those facing cultural or cross-cultural identity challenges and questions of faith or spirituality. This often means helping people to acquire practical skills for managing daily pressures while exploring the deeper factors contributing to ongoing distress so that they can be addressed to create lasting change.
My Approach
Guided by clinical research and best practices, my work combines practical strategies with deeper exploration of meaning, resilience, and personal growth, helping clients restore clarity, purpose, and alignment with their core values. My goal is to help clients not only navigate challenges but also cultivate resilience, clarity, and a lasting sense of purpose.
