I take a decolonized approach to therapy and work with folks from marginalized locations, including folx from intersectional identities. I believe in empowering clients to tap into their innate wisdom and validate their expertise in the experience of their own lives. We explore what has worked, what is tolerable, and what needs to be changed. Healing begins in relationship to one another. Therapy, in my opinion, models a way to be in healthy relationship. I aim to provide a safe environment to allow the parts of yourself that are in conflict with one another to emerge, to listen, and to learn from each other.

“Trying to define yourself is like trying to bite your own teeth.” – Alan Watts. Sounds pretty pointless and dumb to me (and probably to dentists everywhere). Attempting to work on yourself alone only takes you so far and really drags out the Suffer-Fest. That’s what therapy is all about; an unbiased, collaborative relationship, preferably with someone who actually gives a shit (me, hi), that can help you to understand and accept yourself fully.

Are you a high achieving, feminist woman who also struggles with perfectionism, worry and negative body image? Do you beat yourself up and never feel 'good enough'? Do you feel exhausted from trying to 'do' everything but then feel like you have no time for yourself? I get it--as women, we often carry so much and we worry about pleasing others at the expense of ourselves. Nothing is wrong with you. However, I also know what it's like on the other side. I am here to help you tend to your emotions, set boundaries, and live a more joy filled life. You are worthy of feeling free, empowered, confident and connected to yourself.

I believe that everyone deserves to live a deeply engaged, fiercely connected and meaningful life. I offer a neurodiversity-affirming, mind-body approach for people who need to reset from shame, blame, or negativity; who want to increase their confidence and self-esteem; who want to heal from difficult experiences; who want to get unstuck; who want to find connection with others; who want to find their voice and find peace.

I have a passion for supporting partners, families, and individuals in the queer community and who identify as neurodivergent. As a queer and neurodivergent therapist, I understand the unique challenges and triumphs that come with navigating experiences and relationships from these lived experiences. My goal is to create an inclusive environment where all expressions of love and identity are celebrated and to support clients in being their authentic self, embrace their identities, and build healthy relationships.

You have felt pressure your whole life. Maybe it was pressure from your family: pressure to succeed, a parent’s expectations to live up to, a family culture where you never felt good enough, or pressure to be someone you were not. Or maybe you have put pressure on yourself: to make others happy (often sacrificing your own happiness), to never let others down, to always excel and achieve, or to not take up too much space in the world. You’re exhausted and you wish you could just turn off the noise in your head: the self-criticism, the worry, or the feelings of uncertainty. You want to feel free to live life on your terms.

Trauma is inevitable, but it does not have to overshadow our entire lives. I work with folks who have experienced trauma of all kinds and are interested in leaving behind the habits, patterns, and feelings that no longer serve them. Whether your trauma was acute, such as accident or loss, or longstanding, such as abuse from parents or partners, my work is to help folks rediscover their inherent ability to feel safe, connected, and capable. My work is nestled in understanding of how our social, political, and economic conditions lead to passing on trauma and distress.

I believe true connection and healing are possible, and that therapy holds the capacity for profound transformation. We'll work within a supportive and accepting environment navigating areas relating to belonging, past trauma, owning the strength of sensitivity and confidence in self expression. I specialize in supporting identities and interests such as high sensitivity, low self esteem and self worth, spirituality, codependency, childhood emotional neglect, addiction, adult children and siblings of substance users, life transitions, anxiety, depression, loneliness, and Bipolar disorder.

Thank you for taking a look at my profile. If you are suffering from emotional loneliness or anxiety, if you are dealing with guilt and shame issues, if you are having a hard time accepting yourself, if there are parts of you believing that there is something "wrong" with you, I would love to hear from you. If you are avoiding intimacy due to trust issues or for fear of getting hurt again, if you are having a difficult time calming down your nervous system and regulating your emotions, if you are seeking to learn more effective ways to work with life within and without, let's talk.
