Are you often questioning yourself in relationships? Have you been struggling to communicate and connect with others? Are you feeling overwhelmed, depressed, or anxious? I have experience assisting clients in navigating life transitions, healing from relational trauma, creating and maintaining healthy relationships, and coping with anxiety and depression. I also assist clients in building self-esteem, setting healthy boundaries, and exploring identity to find true fulfillment.
I believe in a relational and collaborative approach as you are the expert in your own life. I approach therapy from a trauma-informed framework and I work to understand and celebrate all intersecting identities. I have specialized training and experience working with individuals who have experienced trauma related to relationships.
I welcome individuals from LGBTQ+, gender diverse, CNM/polyamorous, and kink communities. My current focus is devoted to helping clients discover their authentic self, find safe and affirming relationships, and to allow space for every identity without judgment. My hope is that our work together will guide you to your most authentic and whole self.
