I am delighted you are taking these first steps on your healing & wellness journey. I know firsthand how nerve-wracking & challenging the process of seeking the best therapist to meet your needs can be. I believe in the power of the therapeutic process & I strive to create a safe space for you to be present with your emotions & any struggles you have found challenging to manage alone. Having a non-judgmental space to explore feelings, experiences, & behaviors with someone who can witness & hold space for the full spectrum of the human condition & meeting you where you are is so transformative & healing.
Therapy should be holistic & intersectional. Sexuality, gender, race, ethnicity, religion, immigration status, & many other identities are integral to our self-understanding & our healing. You are bringing a rich array of life experience & strengths to the table. I aim to create a space where the therapist & client can show up authentically.
Utilizing social-justice-focused, narrative, queer, feminist, trauma-informed, strengths-based, & person-centered theories in practice, I strive to create a collaborative relationship to help you learn skills to cope, process stresses, & empower you on this stop of your path to healing. I look forward to working with you.
