There is no need to struggle alone, and yet we often do. Our suffering may appear in many different forms, from depression and anxiety, to relationship issues, substance use and more. It’s time to shed this idea that “we have to have it all together” and allow ourselves be human for a moment. In this honest space, my clients tend to become more in touch with their authentic selves and establish beliefs, values, narratives and take steps towards a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

Clear, Resolve, Transform. I help clients discover and resolve subconscious causes for emotionaI and behavioral difficulties. The Subconscious controls emotions, desires, memory, habits, thoughts, dreams, and automatic responses. One may consciously understand the value of eliminating problematic emotions, thoughts or behaviors but unless the Subconscious Mind is reached, enduring change is unlikely. I address the underlying subconscious blocks to living a clear and free life. I have effectively treated sexual abuse, trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, phobias, addictions and more. Issues are cleared, clients report being able to function with more energy and clarity. Relationships thrive and lives are transformed.

I believe there are many ways to achieve well-being and recovery. Presence, patience, compassion, acceptance, and curiosity are some of the qualities I possess.

I have come to believe that by the time we meet you have probably been judged by a long list of people, organizations, culture, etc... I believe you may need to give up who you should be to be who you are and that can be amazing work! Client's I work with tend to begin a journey toward discovering their own core values and beliefs, and with these discoveries, begin to ask for things, in life, that line up with those values and beliefs. This leads to purpose, fulfillment, and an authentic life. Come and mend!

Your relationships might suffer, or you don’t feel like your life is aligned with who you really are.

Have you forgotten how to be the main character in your own story? Have you often felt lost and unsure of who you are or want to be? Has fear gotten in the way of you living your life unapologetically authentic? Does it sometimes feels like a "all is lost" moment? We live in a world often riddled with systems of oppression that we internalize and limit ourselves, based off of such systems. Often times it can be difficult to be true to ourselves in a world that requires us to conform and mask who we are. Change can be scary and the journey can feel overwhelming. You don't have to make that journey on your own!

I am mainly focusing on adult/young adult individual work currently, and I enjoy watching clients heal and transform their lives. I tend to work with clients who struggle with Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, Trauma, Life transitions, and relationship issues. My style as a therapist is more of a therapist/coach. That being said, I listen well, and only "coach" when the client is ready. I strive to look at the whole client and all of their parts, and meet them there, and then help them to get to where they want to be.
