Life can be incredibly challenging. Feeling like we are alone in our experiences can make these times feel even more painful. I know the importance of feeling heard and seen, and knowing that you matter. Whether you are experiencing issues in relationships, a difficult personal journey, impacts from sociocultural systems, or just noticing that something isn't working for you anymore, I am here to listen. I want to provide a space where you feel understood, valued, and supported in healing and making meaningful change, however that looks for you.
I work with individuals and couples. My specialty with individuals is working through blockages to loving yourself, family/relationship concerns, eating/body image, identity exploration and development, and academic/career/professional stressors. I work with couples on communication, life adjustments, trust, equity, intimacy, and overall satisfaction.
I aim to provide a space that feels warm, compassionate, and understanding. And my passion is for you to feel a sense of belonging, presence, and power in your life. I currently offer virtual sessions in the afternoon/evenings; limited weekend availability. I accept private pay and the insurance listed below. Call or email me to discuss how I can help.
