We all arrive on this Earth with a plan. Sometimes the plan gets muddled, confusing and scary. Sometimes our labeling of these experiences as “bad” can create stagnation in growth and deny us the insight that we need to stretch into our higher versions of self. When we become aware of this, choice in growth is present. Growth is constant and never ending, especially during challenging times/barriers. However, we only grow when we embrace and feel curious about the uncomfortability. Making space for curiosity allows for integration of wisdom brought by the lessons in our suffering.

We are co-creators, lead by you, the expert in your healing and challenges. In a non pathologizing relationship that is rooted in trust, empathy, and curiosity, we can sit with difficult feelings, symptoms and experiences. Together we cultivate self-understanding and acceptance as they are the sources of empowerment and authenticity. In order to heal, we must sift through painful experiences, narratives, and feelings. Therapy is difficult and rewarding work that requires bravery, authenticity, and self-forgiveness. Acknowledging our growth edges while also releasing burdens that are no longer serving us.

I believe that the therapeutic relationship is the basis of long-lasting change. As a clinician, I strive to offer a safe space where no problem feels too big or small and all feel welcome. I am passionate about working with clients using a strengths-based lens to find the root causes of undesired thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, while encouraging healing through empathy and compassionate support. I practice through an emotion-focused, mindfulness, and feminist lens, although I incorporate eclectic modalities to best suit my client’s needs.
