I guide clients on working with their autonomic nervous system, which is the base of our self-healing mechanism, rather than going against it. We would do embodying & mindfulness practices as well as talk therapy to bring about the life you hope for.
I often work to help clients change their relationship with their emotions from one of avoidance to acceptance. Using an attachment lens, I see value in attending to emotional injuries while also attending to the influence of early experiences.

I strive to be culturally responsive in my work, and place a great emphasis on developing a strong, authentic connection with my clients. I highly value collaboration and believe treatment should ultimately be adapted for each unique individual.
As someone who grew up in unstable socio-political circumstances and as an immigrant, I have reinvented myself many times, and I can help you do the same. I am a fierce fighter for social justice and a supporter of oppressed people.

I am a bilingual (English/Serbian, Bosnian, Croatian) therapist. I offer culturally informed therapy and acknowledge individual, intergenerational, historical, racial, and social trauma. These traumas are often at the root of modern human issues.
We will explore the narratives that you hold about yourself and life. We will create a shared space of safety and will work to connect authentically to emotions. We will reflect on how life's experiences and systems impact understanding and healing.

I use games and storytelling to help build understanding, confidence, and connection. I offer culturally-humble care, providing individual therapy specialized in trauma work, and in therapeutically-applied role-playing game group therapy.

I have experience providing both traditional psychotherapy and art therapy in community mental health (in-home), inpatient hospitalization and group private practice settings. I view therapy as unique to the individual - there's no one size fits all.
