MY APPROACH

I believe joy is the magnetic field that guides our inner compass. Recovery often means doing less, less caretaking, less controlling, less enmeshment, less self-sacrifice, but it also means adding back in: the people, practices, and passions that make us feel most alive.

​

I draw from the work of pioneers like Melody Beattie and Lindsay Gibson, as well as Marshall Rosenberg’s Nonviolent Communication, Murray Bowen’s family systems theory, and Narrative Therapy. These frameworks inform my approach to helping clients release old patterns and build the inner foundation for joy and self-trust.
