“Shame dies when stories are told in a safe environment”. I believe that building a safe and genuine relationship with clients is essential in facilitating healing. Relating to others in an empathetic and genuine way has always been my nature, and I bring these to my counseling sessions. I believe that when we help our clients recognize their own strength and resiliency, they discover a new potential within themselves. I feel a special connection working with clients who identify as a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP). I am excited to use my knowledge and experience to help them work through their unique struggles.

It can feel daunting to take the first step. You may feel weighed down by your past or feel like a part of you inside has been missing for some time. You may have identified that you wish to restart or continue the journey you are on. Wherever you are on your individual path, opening up to a professional can oftentimes be intimidating and a little scary. The wonderful part is that I am human too. Through personal experience, I understand what courage it takes to ask for support. I believe that therapy is a collaborative process built on earned trust and safety. I also believe that YOU have essential worth and wholeheartedness.
