Bio

My purpose is to lead with love, to think intensely and introspectively, and to deeply feel the rich diversity of human emotions. I am dedicated to creating meaningful art and literature that withstands the test of time. I am committed to holistic wellness, and my passions include weightlifting, hot yoga, manifestation and gratitude journaling, creative writing, blogging, mindfulness, meditation, aromatherapy, binaural beats, calming classical music, healing crystals, herbal teas, and cold plunges. The therapeutic approaches that resonate with me are person-centered therapy, cognitive-behavioral therapy, mindfulness-based therapy, trauma-informed therapy, mentalization-based therapy, and holistic/integrative therapy. I believe that everyone has the potential for greatness, and my goal is to support others in unlocking and harnessing their unique strengths. Having faced my own challenges, I am passionate about guiding others on their journeys - aiming to be the support I once needed.
