This background has provided her with a unique perspective on how they understand space and the relationships people have with their environments. Over time, her focus has shifted; as a clinical counselor, she has become particularly interested in exploring the intricate geography of emotions and feelings within the human body.

She often contemplates the physical manifestations of emotions. For example, when individuals experience anxiety, where in their bodies do they feel it? She encourages her clients to reflect on these sensations, asking them to identify specific areas where they experience discomfort or tension. This exploration becomes a vital part of their journey together. By locating these feelings, they can begin to address them and work collaboratively to find effective strategies for calming the anxiety.

The mental and emotional maps of their bodies hold significant importance. They represent a personal geography that is intimately connected to their experiences, histories, and identities. Each individual arrives at therapy with a distinct set of questions and challenges, and she is committed to understanding these unique journeys. Her approach is tailored to meet the specific needs of her clients, as she believes that no two paths to healing are the same.

For those who find themselves in her office, they have already taken the most challenging step by seeking help. She understands that this process can be daunting, but she is ready to walk alongside them as they navigate their feelings and experiences. Together, they will explore different forms of treatment, aiming to uncover the tools and insights that will best support their healing. Her goal is to create a safe space where individuals can express themselves freely and embark on a transformative journey toward emotional well-being.
