If you are struggling to feel like yourself, or perhaps are unsure of what it means to be yourself, I have been there. If you are stressed, overwhelmed or running on empty, counselling can help with resourcing your nervous system. Together we can untangle the trauma and the shame that may be holding you back. If you resonate with being a person everyone relies on, I’d love to work with you. I know how tough it can be to carry everyone else’s stuff as well as your own. As a neurodivergent and queer therapist myself, all identities are welcome here. If you are exploring or questioning your identity, this is a safe space.
Let's work together to find real solutions. As a trauma and somatic therapist, I focus on an embodied approach that means you are not just talking about it. We will go deeper, figuring out what works for you using DBT, parts work, and solution-focused techniques, so you are equipped with resources you can use in everyday life.
I know what it is like to struggle caring for yourself while needing to care for others. As a neurodivergent person, I know how systems are not set up for folks with different abilities or needs. I welcome any questions you may have and encourage you to reach out. I look forward to speaking with you soon.

I offer a low-stim environment and the use of fidgets in my office space so you can show up how you need to. I am happy to discuss what is needed for you before we start therapy so that it is accessible. If you are experiencing burnout, or exhaustion, we can utilize tools from somatic therapies and yoga to support you (includes yoga blocks, pillows, bolsters). This is an open and safe space.
