I pride myself on meeting my clients where they are to walk alongside them as they heal & create their best life. We all at times go through periods when processing, whether towards change or healing, becomes necessary. I hope to make that process a bit more comfortable, so that you are not alone, and also to help you move through your journey with integrity and intention. Many of my clients report feeling it to be easier to approach difficult topics due to us having a friendly relationship as a foundation. I believe that foundation is in part created due to our efforts in seeing and validating their own internal strengths.

Finding a therapist who matches your style is the most important step in this process. My approach to therapy is someone who will listen to you with an open ear and remain non-judgmental while pushing you outside of your comfort zone. I believe the therapeutic relationship is the most important piece of therapy. In life, you will encounter a lot of experiences that can leave you with feelings of uncertainty, overwhelmed, and overall dissatisfaction. The decision to seek therapy is a positive and courageous choice. As a therapist, I believe in bridging the gap that can ultimately lead you to be the best version of yourself.

Currently accepting new clients. There are many issues that impact and pull at us in life. It can come in the form of pressures from the outside world, the inner criticisms we feel, or trauma and stress we have experienced. Some may have felt they’ve lost connections within themselves because of the chaos and devastation that life sometimes brings. All these factors can play a role in making someone feel unbalanced.

I believe in the healing power of a therapeutic relationship where you can be the real you. No judgment or criticism here. Maybe you want to break free from unhealthy patterns, work through issues that have been swept under the rug, or find wholeness. Perhaps life isn't going quite the way you'd hoped or expected. Maybe you long to be secure in who you are and embrace all parts of yourself, to move away from self-criticism and toward self-compassion.

Do you hold yourself to a standard that always seems to be out of reach? Are you feeling preoccupied with trying to control outcomes by every means necessary? Let’s work together to restore balance and embrace imperfection. Striving for perfection is exhausting and often comes at a toll to our personal relationships and our self-worth. We’re sometimes driven by the fear of negative judgment and inadequacy and many times looking for acceptance from others. It’s possible to get back to a place where dissatisfaction and self-doubt are released.

We are constantly impacted by our environment from family, friends, communities, and institutions and we are impacted with the relationships we have with each of these systems. We can internalize these interactions which makes it difficult to cope. I utilize a systems theory approach that highlights strengths-based, solution-focused, and trauma-informed practices. I lean into a decolonized and relational approach to the work we do together. My hope is to better understand these dynamics alongside with you and assist you to understand how to overcome the stressors and barriers attached.
