As a therapist, and human in general, I am passionate about creating space for the stories and emotions that are so often pushed away, hidden from view, and disavowed. I believe that to be seen, heard, and accepted in these tender places can be a profoundly healing experience, even (and especially) when there is "nothing to do about it," other than bear witness and grieve. An important piece of this process is moving towards a way of being that centers less around achieving, perfecting and “doing” and much more around “being.” Being present, being messy, being perfectly imperfect and ok with slow processes and uncertainties.
I believe that much of therapy is about developing a deeper understanding of ourselves; how do we view and relate to our self, others, and the world? I am passionate about identity exploration, including gender, sexuality, neurodivergence, and racial identities, grief & trauma processing, life transitions, relationship difficulties, and communication styles.
If you are feeling stuck, lonely, curious, or like something just isn't working, therapy can be a great place to begin. If you are interested in working together, please reach out via email. I would love to connect and see if we might be a good fit :)
