Whether you are struggling with a life transition, anxious thoughts, or relationship uncertainty, I know we can collaborate to find your unique path forward. I provide psychotherapy to individuals that focuses on recovery & healing from past and present traumas as well as work around self-discovery, identity, and positive growth. I see my job as providing support, validation, & relational safety. You are an expert in your life and experience; therefore, my therapeutic approach is flexible so that each session can be client-centered and client-directed.
I have specialized experience supporting mental health professionals dealing with the trauma of working in the mental health field, athletes struggling with performance anxiety, & individuals in the LGBTQ community in the process of embracing their identity, coming out, or navigating relational conflict, especially in the context of religious trauma.
Starting therapy is the bravest step of self-acceptance you can take. I am so glad that you are here and I hope that we can partner together to meet your goals!
