At Be. Counseling Partners we will support you throughout your therapy process. We will help you to identify your needs for support and your goals for change. Sometimes the desired change is internal; we want to think or feel differently about things, including ourselves. Sometimes the change we seek is about behavior; we want to react in different ways in relationships and situations in our lives. Sometimes the change is about acceptance; we seek acceptance of who we are or things we cannot control. It would be our privilege to accompany you in your change process.

Relationships can be the most important things in our lives and they can also be our greatest struggles.

I believe there is no "one size fits all" approach to greater mental health and well-being. Every person has a unique biological, psychological and social story that impacts them every day. As a Clinical Social Worker and Nutritional Therapy Practitioner my approach is bio-individual, meaning what works for one person may not work for another. Together, we will deeply listen to your life story and then make a holistic plan that fits your individual needs and lifestyle in order to gain empathy, insight, hope and make changes that may bring greater mental and physical balance to your life.

Unleash your inner mermaid. Like a mermaid, you were born wondrous and whole, with awe-inspiring potential. Perhaps, like her, trauma hides your power, voice, and sense of magic; tries to cut you off from true self, body, community, and nature’s rhythms; tells oppressive stories that serve to keep you “in your place,” lost, lonely, ashamed, fearful, unfulfilled, or hating your body. The mermaid reclaims her birthright and returns to her community– stronger and more magnificent than ever. You, too, can lay that colonizing fear “am I enough?” in its watery grave, re-discover your voice, step into your wild power, and trust yourself.
