Hi, I’m Arielle.

If you’re here, you might be feeling stuck, frustrated, or weighed down by patterns and feelings you can’t seem to shake. Maybe you’re yearning for a more authentic, fulfilling life but don’t know where to start. I’m here to help you navigate this journey with compassion and tools that actually work.

I believe that therapy is most effective when it’s built on a strong connection between us. You’ll find a safe, supportive, and judgment-free space to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. Together, we’ll work towards understanding the “why” behind your struggles and uncovering the inner strength and clarity you already have.

My approach is warm, intuitive, and emotion-focused. I hold the belief that your current challenges were once coping mechanisms that helped you survive. By reframing these patterns with compassion and curiosity, we can create space for transformation and healing.

Over the years, I’ve found that talk therapy alone often isn’t enough to resolve deeper, long-standing issues. That’s why I integrate innovative, trauma-informed approaches that go beyond analyzing thoughts. Together, we’ll use tools and exercises that tap into the mind-body connection, imagination, and present-moment awareness. These methods can help you move past deeply-rooted blocks and create lasting change in your life and relationships.

Whether you’re looking to overcome shame, build self-compassion, or finally break free from patterns that no longer serve you, I’m here to guide and support you every step of the way.
