When you grow up in an environment where acceptance is based on achievement and perfection, it’s easy to internalize the belief that anything less than perfect is failure. If you are recovering from religious trauma or untangling a childhood of high expectations, you need more than just general coping strategies.

We will explore how your past experiences shaped where you are today, while giving you tangible ways to find symptom relief right now. You can expect a therapist who listens, honors your pace, and challenges you when the time is right.

Clients say I help them navigate to their own best outcomes with a mix of support, humor, and challenge. Therapy with me isn't always heavy. We will laugh, take breaks from the hard stuff to focus on smaller goals, and slow down when needed. I will challenge you, but I’ll also be there so you never have to perform or face the heavy stuff alone.

Most of my clients fall into one of three categories: LGBTQ+, perfectionists, and people dealing with religious trauma. Many of my clients fit into all three.
