My story

My path to becoming a therapist began with a deep yearning to feel secure, seen, and chosen. That longing shaped me—through rejection, heartbreak, and solitude—until I realized the love I was searching for had to start within.

In my teens, the gym became a safe place where I felt like I belonged. That connection to the body led to a decade-long career as a personal trainer, helping people come home to themselves through movement. I noticed how the body holds emotion—how posture, breath, and tension often tell a story before words do.

Wanting to go deeper, I trained in Gestalt therapy, a five-year immersive and experiential program that taught me how to listen relationally, attune to the present moment, and trust the body’s wisdom.

Now, I bring this integrative approach into my work—meeting you with care, curiosity, and a belief in your capacity to not only heal, but to feel more fully, connect more deeply, and rediscover pleasure in your body and life.
