Taking the first steps to make life changes takes courage. I'd like to help you simplify and unpack issues so you can be happier, lead a more peaceful, centered life and feel better about yourself and others. Often counselling is the first opportunity to tell your story and say how it really is without fear of judgement or reprisal, or maybe you have always coped by bottling things up and would like to express your feelings. Together we can tackle relationship/family issues, depression, life challenges, grief, aging, health problems or whatever keeps you stuck.

ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. If you are coping with a recent trauma, a major family or life transition, or have been managing a physical or psychological challenge, I am available to help.

A cisgender, bi+ woman, I'm very familiar with anxiety, fear, and spending time in the bisexual double closet.
You've worked hard to get where you are, navigating anxiety, invisibility, sexism, "otherism." Your inner rebel is ready to kick internalized patriarchial narratives to the dust: "Too much." "Not enough." "Don't rock the boat." You've done therapy, thought you'd dealt with past crap - poor self esteem, toxic family and childhood trauma. But, restlessness, anxiety, and the "what if.s.." are back. It's time to do the deep dive. Get to the roots of fear, and insecurity that's holding you back. Reconnect with your playful inner child. Let's find your voice. And use it.

Healing is a brave and loving pursuit, but that doesn't mean it doesn't feel daunting to turn over the stones of grief and self-denial. We heal and grow not in a straight line, but in a spiral: a movement back & forth, toward & away from similar milestones, from darkness to light, and the path can seem overgrown and difficult to move through. There might be upheaval, pain, and grief, and moments of darkness to sift through and understand. The good news is that no matter what has happened to bring you here, you don't have to navigate this all alone.

I am actively accepting new clients. If you are seeking help with trauma, an eating disorder, struggles with food, your body, or anything in between, there are options other than what we have been taught. Our culture and our world often create an environment for people that encourages self denial. A wide variety of traumas often leave people with chronic feelings of fear, trouble with sleep, relationship distress, and dependence on something that might harm them.
