If you are struggling with shame, emotional pain, problems with trauma or sex we will work together to build a healthy, sturdy foundation for healthy relationships. As a Mental Health Counselor, I look forward to building that connection with those who feel emotionally fatigued, or anyone who has a difficult time making sense of their life. I offer an open space to talk about things such as problems in sex and relationships, gender transitioning/discrimination, and intense emotions. Let me empower you to create the best life for yourself!
I use DBT techniques tailored to your needs and interests. I offer sensitive and gentle somatic exercises that allow you to process traumas. I utilize my EMDR training to emotionally process big and small wounds from the past. We will work on distress tolerance, mindfulness, and emotional regulation skills that will last beyond our sessions!
I believe you are the expert in your life, and as we collaborate in sessions, you will find the skills needed to become your best self. As a non-binary therapist, I want to provide members of the LGBTQ+ and kink scene, a space to be celebrated and empowered. Together we can start your journey towards a balanced, confident, and joyous life!
