Hi there, I'm Bella!

My approach to psychotherapy is both psychosomatic and language-based. While I am trained in and actively practice several body-oriented modalities, I place great importance on the use of language. My ideal client is interested in the workings of memory, attention, and imagination, and in how playful engagement with language can support insight.

My focus

The approach I offer speaks to those who have moved beyond an initial curiosity about psychotherapy yet remain in a state of questioning. It tends to resonate with sensitive individuals who long to live more fully but feel themselves falling short of their potential. My work explores how contemplative practice can shape the texture of everyday life

My approach

My style of engagement is open and highly experimental. I am there to explore any question/idea that arise. I will gently encourage you to move toward direct experience rather than remain in habitual patterns. Experience means different things for each person, but it is often our disconnection from it that contributes to anxiety and depression.
