There is beauty in the complexity of our lives, and often difficulty too. Sometimes, our inner resources and life's challenges don't align, leaving us feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unskilled. My goals is to help you to find more freedom, ease, and wholeness in these moments. I am skilled in working with experiences of complex trauma and chronic pain/illness, depression, anxiety/panic. I am experienced in working with members of the LGBTQIA+ and ENM communities, neurodivergent folks, and those whose lives question social norms. My approach emphasizes gentleness, mutuality, creativity, and awareness from an anti-oppressive lens.

As we experience life and recount its events, we use stories. Often the problems we encounter and the stories we use to describe our life, become so entangled it is hard to separate ourselves from it all. Through therapy, it is my job to help you clearly see were you begin and the problems end, while empowering you to tell the story you want.

Through intentionality and training, we create a comfortable, supportive space for our clients to grow and process their experiences.

Change happens inside of us all the time. It is a daily, intentional, purposeful act. When the pain of remaining the same is greater than the relief of being better, therapy helps. If you're having difficulty navigating relationships with your significant other, spouse, friends, children, or family members, I will help you achieve the change you want to see in yourself. Changes from within effect change around us.

My goal is to help people discover their own ability to achieve change in their lives. Many times I hear people describe themselves as broken or damaged because they are unable to just "get over it". Often, these degrading narratives overwhelm and we can find ourselves experiencing anxiety, depression and even substance abuse issues. The good news is that using modern, evidence-based techniques we can not only resolve the issues that have led you to seek counseling, but make you better equipped in the future to handle life challenges as they arise.

Somewhere along the way, you lost yourself. It happened so slowly that you barely realized it. Every time you spoke up at work, the voice in your head would criticize you, “You’re making a fool of yourself.” So, eventually, you stopped speaking up. After dates, you’d obsess over every interaction to the point where you’d be sick with worry. So, you decided it’s not worth it to keep dating. Little by little, you stopped doing things and receded further into yourself. You took fewer chances and felt fewer emotions. Every day, your world got smaller... You know you deserve more from life than this, but you’re unsure how to get it.
