Across all therapeutic modalities I aim to maintain a safe space, which allows both therapist and client to collaborate and engage in natural conversation. I believe it is through these interactions where a relationship can be developed and certain insights come to light. In our work together, clients are able to learn more about their relational patterns, both through the experience of retelling their stories as well as firsthand within therapeutic interactions. As these insights provide opportunity for better understanding of current difficulties, ultimately, meaningful and empowered change can be pursued.

Often we seek therapy when our natural tools alone can't support us anymore. Maybe life has thrown something too big at us, or we have suffered silently for too long. I work collaboratively with clients to move towards personal growth, stress reduction and improved coping techniques. Through compassion and clinical tools I partner with clients to manage life transitions and navigate developmental processes. I work to create a safe, empowering space for my clients. It's an environment where I believe we are best positioned to access insight, strengthen our resilience, and build readiness for change.

Somewhere along our life’s journey, we may have lost our “true self.” Somewhere in our past, we may have gotten stuck, thinking “I am not my best self.” We may know exactly when this shift happened, we may not. It is my belief that being in an empathic, non-judgmental and trusting therapeutic relationship can support you in living the life you always wanted.

When we are feeling overwhelmed and uncertain, seeking therapy can be a daunting experience. It is my goal as a therapist to foster connection and create a space for you to unpack life's challenges. I work with adults who are seeking change in their lives. My clients often come into counseling dealing with anxiety, overwhelming life transitions & identity and relationship issues. I believe that finding connection with others is key to change in our lives and that with empathy and reflection, you have the capacity to grow and develop as a person.

Everyone deserves to live a meaningful life, no matter what we have experienced or where we may come from. Therapy can be a great place to explore your values, beliefs, and attitudes, and examine how you might reorient those concepts to align with your authentic self. My clients are the experts on their own lives, and I am here to facilitate your exploration of yourself, others, and your worldview to find meaning in life. I have worked in community mental health for six years, and I focus on trauma-informed care for those with complex trauma histories, specializing in complex trauma, grief, and existential concerns as a therapist.

Seeking therapy is a courageous act. As your therapist, I'm privileged to meet you where you are at.

My stance as a queer, non-binary feminist support my multiculturally sensitive and strengths-based approach. I welcome clients of all identities and intersections, including BIPOC, LGBTQIA+, and persons with disabilities. I provide a safe stigma and judgment-free space for you to explore the multifaceted dimensions of who you are, what you feel, and how your thoughts impact your well-being.

An ideal client for me, would be someone who hasn't felt heard in a long time. Perhaps someone who's been told "you should do this/that.." but never asked, "what do you want?". Maybe you've never had someone that you can just vent to, and for a therapist to keep things real while still offering professional guidance. An ideal client for me would be anyone who's feeling burnt out, hopeless, or lonely and is ready to regain control of their life.
