Do you feel disconnected from yourself and others around you? Do you feel unsure how to express your true self or live the life you want? As a Gender, Sex, and Relationship Diversity knowledgable therapist, I offer a supportive environment to address issues in life that may be holding you back. Sometimes it's our own beliefs about ourselves or the limiting beliefs we hold about our true potential that are our greatest barriers. Therapy can help uncover these barriers and help you learn skills and techniques to work more collaboratively with yourself and life so that you feel you're more truly living as opposed to just surviving.
I specialize in providing Gender Affirming Care and Sex Therapy and I have extensive training working on issues pertaining to intimacy and alternative lifestyles. I am also certified in EMDR and use an integrative approach to treating trauma. AND I offer a space for existential exploration of the "bigger" questions in life that often reflect our core values.
I take a mindfulness-based approach to support you in exploring life's challenges, connecting to your authentic self, and in guiding you along the way to increased mental health and well being. My approach offers a unique combination of both acceptance AND challenge to help you address your goals and achieve a more fulfilling life.
