I bring Cog-B & mindfulness skills together in our work, untangling the stuck-thoughts, behaviors, & feelings along with acceptance of the present moment. OCD work is ERP exposure/response prevention together at your pace, never forced.
We will uncover knowledge & skills you have acquired from your lived experience (strengths) & apply them in achieving your goals. My approach is a mix of narrative therapy, mindfulness, somatic practices, polyvagal theory-based therapy, etc.

I guide clients on working with their autonomic nervous system, which is the base of our self-healing mechanism, rather than going against it. We would do embodying & mindfulness practices as well as talk therapy to bring about the life you hope for.
Work collaboratively in the areas where you feel immobilized or burdened, uncover unnoticed behavioral patterns, and discover fresh approaches to your challenges, boosting your self-assurance and confidence.

Our initial meetings focus on creating a comprehensive plan to meet your goals. I guide you in altering your thought patterns to diminish the influence of fears, enabling you to enhance your connections with others and increase your meaning in life.

My approach is thoughtful and pragmatic. I'll work with you to help clarify values, needs, and desires to live a life that feels genuine to you. We'll work on communication and identifying patterns that don't work anymore to feel more fulfilled.
Typically I work from two frames; first, what are you experiencing and how to we build skills and capacity to manage and heal but also, where does this come from and how was my nervous system shaped this way.

I'm a good fit for people struggling with life transitions, coming out, platonic/romantic/sexual relationships, sex, sexuality, self-advocacy, ADHD and anxiety. I have a passion for working with the queer community and neurodivergent people.
