I will genuinely be interested in you and how you want to progress. I wear many "hats" as a therapist (e.g., listener, coach, guide, problem-solver) and tailor my approach to what each client is hoping to obtain from therapy.
Help you feel more accepting of yourself when you make mistakes, quiet your harsh inner critic so you feel less anxiety and shame, and increase your confidence to speak up instead of people-pleasing.

We will work together to help you develop new, healthier habits so you feel like an upgraded version of yourself that is aligned with the person you want to be.
Figure out what you need to be happier and more fulfilled, less weighed down by past events and by current stressors, more successful in relationships and your career, and more resilient and adaptive to life’s inevitable challenges.

We'll start wherever you are and work together to get you to where you want to be, focusing on your own values and goals, not anyone else's. My focus as a therapist is on mental health, not mental illness.
Together, we will create the life you want to live with the relationships you need. Together we can understand your relationships, identities, needs, and desires. I am queer and neurodivergent CELEBRATING and informed, all parts of you are welcome.

In our work together you will come to understand who you are and how that came to be. You can then understand your relationship with yourself, the world, and others more deeply. We will get to the "root" of your pain and enable you to truly heal.
Rebuild trust and hope in your relationship/ life.

I have personally had challenges with alcohol and homelessness. These experiences give me a solution-focused approach from an authentic and empathetic place.
