My intention is to provide you with a safe space to explore thoughts and emotions and understanding of self. I believe you are the expert on your life, while I may guide the process, you are directing us where to go. It's my belief that every person has the capacity to change, and I am committed to working collaboratively with you to reach your goals. My approach comes from a background in bodywork and massage where I have been practicing for over a decade. Through these experiences I've seen the physical manifestation of trauma within our bodies. I take this into account using a client centered approach with my clients.
If you are facing challenges related to identity, self-acceptance, depression, anxiety, substance use, grief, trauma, relationships (poly/kink friendly), or LGBTQ+ topics we might be a good fit.
For me a holistic approach means giving you a space to connect the body, mind, spirit and community in honest and purposeful ways. As someone with lived experience in anxiety and depression I know how deeply it can affect our lives and will meet you wherever you're at in your journey.
