Starting therapy can be a vulnerable and sometimes intimidating experience, which is why I work to create a safe space where you can work to explore your concerns and get "unstuck". I can help you find meaning and connection.
We will deconstruct negative self beliefs, widen curiosity about body image, practice boundaries and self empowerment. Much of our work together consists of building awareness of patterns and challenging them.

Sometimes it's hard to be a human, have a body, and be in relationships. By healing ourselves we can heal in community. I practice a blend of Narrative, Relational-Cultural, and Feminist Therapies. Because context, language, and identity Matter!
I help you learn self-compassion and coping, and make positive changes in your life. We delve into your story, discover what you value, find meaning and purpose in your life, and explore what is getting in the way of you living the life you want.
