Accepting new clients! At some point in our lives, we recognize that what they’re doing isn’t working. We wake up and realize this isn’t the life we want to live. We don’t want to keep existing with so much stress, anxiety, anger, or isolation and crave connection, acceptance, and genuine happiness. We want things to be different, but don’t know how or where to start. I work with people who want to redefine their lives and reduce suffering, and help them get there. I work with individuals, couples, and those looking to integrate past psychedelic experiences to create lasting, positive change.
I specialize in anxiety, couples, mood regulation, chronic illness, relationships, ADHD, and trauma. Often my clients express: "I'm not enough", "something is wrong with me", "I'm so different from others", "something is missing", "I'm the problem". I empower clients to question old patterns and embrace their strengths and essence for stability and joy.
As a counselor with a previous career as a nurse, I recognize healing isn't just tools, it's the relationship. I lead sessions with genuine curiosity & openness, honoring your lived experience, and offering gentle feedback. My lens is Existential. I also use ACT, DBT, Attachment, Neuropsychology, & Mindfulness. Let's embark on this healing voyage together.
