Taking the leap to find a therapist can feel overwhelming. The thought of talking to a complete stranger about the deepest darkest parts of your mind may feel frightening, but seeking help is something to celebrate. If you are searching for someone to help lighten the load of the weight of the world or even just the thoughts swirling around in your mind, I am here to help.
With a passion for working with youth and individuals who identify with the LGBTQIA+ community, I have experience with adolescents and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, suicidal ideations, self-harm, grief, trauma, ADHD, self-esteem, stress, and adjusting to life transitions.
Therapy is not one-size-fits-all and what may work for one person may not work for another. I strive to provide a safe, judgement-free, unique, and individualized space to cultivate positive self-talk, influence creative and loving self-care, meditative processes, and guidance towards uncovering your most authentic self. Take the leap and contact me!
