Do you experience negative thinking, self doubt or have racing thoughts? Do you wish you had someone in your life who could help to guide you through how you feel in a nonjudgmental, safe and patient way? Do you feel as though you're struggling and no one around you seems to "get it"? Is it hard to effectively communicate how you feel to others? We often don't just know how to handle these things on our own, and can be left feeling defeated when met with these situations. There is help, and that is where I come in.

Constant anxiety and exhaustion, right? And can we talk about the off-brand crankiness you feel so guilty about? I know you wish you weren’t, but you’re sensitive. Your superpower? You can tell with stunning accuracy what anyone around you is feeling and make sense of what would make the situation better. This makes you great in a crisis and a deft caregiver (and you have given a lot of care). But you can’t turn it off, so you struggle to know what your own needs and boundaries are, let alone meet them. I am neurodivergent with a history of complex trauma. I understand from the inside and I can help you make sense of yourself, too.

I believe one of the bravest things you can do is begin to understand your own story. It is often hard for us to accept help due to society’s belief that we should “handle it” on our own. These unhelpful thinking patterns impact how we interact in our relationships, as well as how we process things as they are happening. I strive to work with clients through the hard times while making the process as enjoyable as possible. We can get caught in bad relationships, trauma cycles, grudges, and anger.

Do you sometimes feel like life is a story you're reading rather than living? Do concerns like stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, grief/loss, and uncertainty about identity prevent you from being your authentic self? Do you find yourself struggling to express your thoughts to those around you and wish to understand the emotional part of yourself better? If any of these questions resonate with you, then my style of counseling might be an excellent opportunity to work towards a life that is more personally meaningful; in a safe, confidential, and supportive environment.

I believe that healing of self lays the foundation for showing up authentically in relationships, doing fulfilling work, raising courageous and caring children, and building a more just and safer world for all. I believe that healing of self requires cultivating mind/body states that allow for joy, play, curiosity, and connection. I believe healing of self often means recognizing the ways in which we have been misled, harmed, and/or abused by larger social systems which were not designed for human thriving.
