Feeling like we are never enough, being taken for granted, exhausted, overwhelmed, and anxious are common emotions in our fast-paced world. We can become wired to focus on our deficits vs our strengths. In our work together, I'll support you in setting boundaries and in maintaining self-respect. We'll identify and challenge unhelpful beliefs that feed into these negative thoughts and emotions. We'll look at where beliefs stem from such as trauma, family of origin, adverse life experiences, and social/cultural pressure. Understanding HOW we learned, can empower us to get "unstuck" and to learn more helpful ways to navigate life.

As a social worker, queer woman, neurodivergent individual, and human, it is so important to me to be constantly learning everything I can from the world and those around me. As your therapist, it is my top priority to affirm to you that you are first and foremost the main expert of your life and experiences. I firmly believe that at the end of the day, we’re all just human beings doing our best to navigate this hectic world with the tools we have. But there are always opportunities to find new tools that help us become better versions of ourselves as we move along. This is your journey, and I’m here to walk alongside you.

Have you ever experienced a difficulty that left you feeling isolated? Or a relationship that just didn’t make sense? These are all parts of being human but can leave us feeling unsettled, disconnected, confused, and hurt. I genuinely enjoy connecting with people, hearing their stories, and helping them through the hard times. Above all else, I find it important to create a safe space for my clients to feel secure enough to speak openly and show the more vulnerable parts of themselves. I do this by creating an environment of trust based on direct and authentic communication.

I'm so glad you're here! You're taking the first step towards the future you picture, and that takes courage. It's so easy to make excuses as to why today isn't the right day to prioritize yourself...your kids are in the middle of sports, work is too busy, the laundry and bills are piling up, the dog needs a walk and you need to go to the gym. The reality is that all of those things will be there whether or not you start therapy, but therapy will make them all easier to deal with.

Hello, I'm Adelaide! I am a neurodivergent queer woman and I like to focus on the stories that we tell about ourselves and our relationships as well as the stories other people and institutions tell about us. Therapy with me looks like untangling the messy web of societal expectations that the world pushes on you, empowering you to be the author of your own story, and taking back control of your life and your identity in light of what makes you uniquely you. With couples, I also use emotionally focused therapy (EFT) techniques to create healing interactions between you and your partner right there in session.
