I am passionate about working with individuals who struggle with self-criticism, perfectionism, and anxiety. Does your inner critic loudly providing negative feedback? Do you often find yourself ruminating on events that have already occurred? Do you feel like your life could be better? Let's work together to unravel self-limiting beliefs to optimize growth and self-awareness. As your counselor, my goal is to provide a warm space, showing up for you every time, and place YOU first. We will work together to identify your strengths and goals, and to overcome life’s adversities.
I use a range of therapeutic techniques best suited for each individual, ranging from Existentialism to Internal Family Systems. You are uniquely you, and your treatment should reflect that. I specialize in the treatment of chronic health conditions and individuals with overactive inner critics and low self-esteem.
The first step of reaching out is the hardest, but you are here for a reason. Let's tackle the next steps together. No soft voice here; just a real and relatable gal ready to listen, challenge you, and aid you in your growth. I greatly look forward to hearing from you.
