Are you looking for deeper meaning in your work or relationships? Trying to create change in your life but feel stuck? Unsure of your next steps? Not even sure where to begin? It’s ok, sometimes we all need someone to talk to. Everyone needs a safe space where we can put down our armor and be our true selves. To say how we’re really feeling. Without that opportunity, our batteries wear down pretty fast. We go through our whole lives acting like everything’s fine, but you don’t have to look very far beneath the surface to see there’s more going on behind our brave faces. No matter what, you can always talk to me.
A typical session with me is a deep, compassionate conversation with a sprinkle of critical thinking, a dash of philosophical theory, and a meditation garnish. I like to fill my chalkboard with diagrams or lists of helpful information so you can take a picture with your phone before you leave. Pocketful of mental health resources, to go!
I'm a creative, visual thinker and sometimes I communicate in pictures. My method is a holistic blend of Transpersonal Psychology, Bowen Family Systems, Polyvagal Theory, Compassionate Inquiry, Inner Child Work, and Post Traumatic Growth. My practice is progressive, intersectionally feminist, Pro-Choice, Anti-Racist, Queer, Trans, and Sex Worker friendly.
