Most of us carry around stories about who we are and who we should be without really knowing how we got them or if we want to keep them. Therapy is a place to gently explore and unpack these narratives. My clients want to like and understand themselves more, have better relationships, and feel more hope and possibility in their lives. They are determined and brave, but often have been trying things that aren't working or leave them more stuck. I believe every person has an innate capacity to heal, but sometimes trauma and life experiences can block those pathways and make life feel narrow and small.
I bring warmth, gentle curiosity, honesty, creativity, and collaboration to our work. I utilize relational and feminist approaches, am EMDR trained, and use attachment theory, IFS, DBT skills, and MBCT. While I treat a variety of issues, I specialize in working with shame and anxiety, low self-worth, C-PTSD, gender exploration, trauma, and mood disorders.
I currently offer individual therapy with adults and teenagers, both in-person and telehealth. If you would like to learn more, please reach out and schedule a free 20-minute consult, or visit my website. I would be delighted to hear from you.
