Have you noticed how most therapy profiles try to guess who you are before they’ve even met you? You don’t need me to guess what’s going on in your life. I’d rather hear your questions, your story, and what you want help changing. Most therapists offer a quick consultation. I offer a full consultation session because understanding people takes time. My practice is neurodivergent-informed and welcoming to queer and trans clients. I use evidence-based approaches including Reality Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and modalities tailored to your needs, with a focus on movement, clarity, and practical change.
Reality Therapy focuses on what you can control: your choices, actions, relationships, and responses to challenges. Together, we identify patterns that are not working and build practical strategies that better match your needs and values. For trauma work, use Internal Family Systems to help clients understand themselves with compassion and curiosity.
If you’re tired of feeling disconnected from yourself, or repeating patterns that no longer work, therapy can help create movement. And no, you do not have to have everything figured out before reaching out ! I offer a free 50 minute initial consultation session so we can explore what’s meaningful change could look like for you.
