Our experiences form an unconscious ‘blueprint’, which shapes our beliefs and aspirations, but also the fears and challenges we face. Gaining a deeper understanding of yourself and the patterns that run your life allows you the freedom to make new choices and respond differently, transforming your relationships with yourself and others. In our work together, I will support you on your journey towards self-awareness that can lead to a profound change. My therapeutic approach is warm, direct and authentic. I believe feeling safe, accepted and heard are all critical elements for therapy to succeed.

We all need a place to feel safe—to let down our masks and be ourselves. I believe in the importance of being yourself and living authentically - rebelling against the pressures of who others want you to be and what society makes us think about success and happiness. As a therapist who is sex-positive, body-positive, and LGBTQIA+ affirming, I work with people who are trying to traverse this world, often misunderstood by the dominant culture. Whether you are neurodivergent, poly, queer, fat, a rebel, an artist, the black sheep, or you are just trying to work through life's ups & downs, I can provide that safe place for you.

Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed by life? Do you struggle with self-prioritization, work-life balance, or are questioning your gender identity or sexuality? Whether you are a teen or an adult, you’re not alone. Perhaps you need space to freely express yourself. If this resonates with you, we can work together to process what you have gone through while increasing your coping skills for life’s hardships. Therapy can be hard; it's a growing experience. However, it's not uncommon that I share quite a few laughs with my clients along the way. Therapy doesn't have to be scary!
