With an eclectic therapeutic approach, I tailor my services to each person's unique needs, employing three main modalities: Emotion Focused/Psychodynamic therapy, Compassion-Focused Therapy, & Mindfulness-based/Somatic-based therapy.
With over a decade of clinical experience, my therapeutic approach is deeply rooted in helping individuals foster self-reflection and emotional expression. I guide clients through life transitions and help them process a diverse range of emotions, thoughts, traumas, and complex relationships that may cause distress. For instance, I assist clients in processing feelings such as worry, shame, guilt, fear, and sadness, while also facilitating acceptance, trust, hope, forgiveness, accountability, and a sense of enoughness. My practice is also trauma-informed, ensuring that the impacts of past traumas are validated & safety is formed.

I provide individual therapy based on anti-fascist, anti-racist, pro-queer & trans, Covid-conscious, and sex/kink/polyamorous-positive values. I'm most passionate about working with clients on interpersonal relationships, self-image, sexuality, gender, finding meaning/purpose in life, and harm caused by systemic oppression/marginalization and ecological destruction. I'm not able to offer skilled support for disordered eating, OCD, or psychosis. I have a chronic illness, so I work best with clients who can be flexible with their availability as I sometimes need to reschedule on short notice for medical reasons.

We are going through unprecedented challenges, and reaching out for help is the first step toward feeling better. My clients value my non judgmental approach to care, whether it is exploring relationships with substances, emotions, other people, or the self. Co-dependence, anxiety, depression, identity, sober curious – more than just search terms and buzzwords, these are the main struggles my clients share. Whether it is exploring how trauma lives on in current relationships, identifying better ways to manage drinking post-pandemic, or setting boundaries with family around changes in identity, I can help.

Eclectic Therapists
Many practitioners take an eclectic approach to therapy, drawing upon various aspects of cognitive-behavioral and psychodynamic methods to create their own custom-made approach. Such therapists often work with their clients to create a treatment plan that encompasses different techniques to best address the client's particular problems and to appeal to their sensibility.
