If you have been to many therapists and feel like you are just another nameless face. I see you. If other providers have told you, you are too much I see you. If your family or loved ones have made you feel worthless, I see you. If you have always felt different or you just didn't fit in I see you. I am here to help anyone, whomever you are. If you are struggling with trauma, narcissistic relationships, alcohol or drug addiction, self-harm or self abuse I will hold space for you. I will help you develop the tools to feel seen and recover for the long-term. Nothing is a quick fix and therapy is the long-game.
I specialize in helping people who have always felt like the black sheep/the truth tellers in their family find their voice and their individual value. I am an ally of the queer, and marginalized communities as well as a champion for women's rights. I welcome you. I am here to listen to your story and provide trauma informed care.
I am a straight forward therapist who will always tell you the truth. I am transparent, candid and empathetic. I pride myself on being extremely comprehensive in assessing your situation and taking the time to hear all the details see your whole picture. There isn't a life story that is too much. Come as you are.
