I use solution-focused brief therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, client-centered and reality therapy to help explore your strengths and overcome your setbacks. My areas of focus are working with life transitions, behavioral issues, anxiety, etc.
I work primarily with clients who struggle with depression or trauma related to their past. The majority of my clients are motivated, individuals who want to better understand how their past has impacted them.

I use an integrated therapeutic approach. I often use Narrative & EMDR. In your first session, we will explore what brought you to therapy before deciding the most appropriate ways to help you make progress.
work on helping you to feel understood and validated, to become grounded in the present moment while hopeful for the future, to gain new perspectives and coping skills, and to live more intentionally in thought and action.

I encourage clients to use relaxation techniques and mindfulness meditation, and I will occasionally include grounding activities into the session. Each client is different, and I tailor approaches to fit your unique circumstances.
go on a journey of self-discovery & healing. I'll invite you to slow down, engage with present-moment experiences and gently uncover parts of yourself yearning for care. Playfulness, humor, creativity, as well as deep grief & raw emotion are welcome.

Healing comes from connection with others & self-acceptance. Trauma, a difficult childhood, or painful adult relationships can affect our ability to connect with others starving us of vital emotional nourishment.
As a queer, neurodivergent therapist, I especially enjoy working with clients who are exploring identity, navigating life with multiple diagnoses (including Depression, Anxiety, Bipolar, & ADHD), and building resilience after trauma.

My framework is relational-cultural theory, which focuses on empowerment and strengths-based change, while valuing the impact of culture and trauma in our lives. In my practice, you are always in charge of your own therapy.
