I approach therapy through a non-pathologizing, trauma-informed, and harm reduction lens and understand that the client is the expert of their own experience. I view the clinical relationship as a tool for healing.
With a special emphasis on the impacts of oppression, I help clients of diverse identities understand themselves better and learn to tackle new challenges with confidence.

In our sessions, we'll build a strong bond grounded in radical validation and support, making sure you always feel recognized and valued.
Together we will explore your childhood, past, and present. Learning more about who you are is essential for being able to challenge the difficulties that have brought you here. Together we will work to make you stronger, happier, and empowered.

I use a variety of approaches using talk therapy, explorations of your childhood and your past, and a variety of art therapy techniques. I like to find out what your interests are and incorporate that into your sessions (art, music, books, etc).
Together, we will collaborate to create a treatment plan that is specific and focused on creating behavioral change. Throughout therapy you will learn the skills to overcome your current issues and better cope with them in the future.

My approach is both direct and caring, with a touch of humor to keep our conversations relaxed and engaging. I strive to create an environment where you feel comfortable and supported, without taking things too seriously.
Our work may include a focus on how to build resilience by developing coping skills, processing current/past trauma, learning to manage and relieve uncertainty about the unknown, and letting go of those old narratives that no longer serve you.

I like to use stories about others' experience, or even my own, to relate to what we're trying to describe or process. I don't mind self disclosing if I know it can help you. I prefer a shared and connected experience. No hierarchy.
