Coffee Chat Counseling provides care to individuals who are aged 13 and older.

As a queer owned practice, we have a strong commitment to working with the LGBTQIA+ community. Our mission is to de-stigmatize mental health care while making therapy as approachable as possible by providing a safe, non-judgmental space for our clients to express themselves.

You may notice yourself feeling underappreciated, alone, or unimportant in your relationship; like your relationship could change if there was better communication. If you and your partner are feeling stuck or misaligned, therapy can help you prioritize, support, and join each other through journey of life. I help couples understand their patterns of stuckness and awaken the security of their partnership. I believe security and emotions, both real and valid, are the driving force toward healing and that each partner holds an important piece of the relationship puzzle.

Be what you are becoming, without clinging to what you might have been, what you might yet be. Our relationship is an opportunity for you to take up space and fill concert halls. It is easy for us to view our lives like a piece of sheet music and get caught up in the theory. As a result, we end up missing the beautiful symphony all around us. I want to create a space with you where you don't have to worry about being too much. Our space will be warm, protected, and healing. I want us to create a space where you get to live your life on your own terms.

The ideal client is prepared for a new journey and experience.
Clients who work with me soon realize that their strength and freedom comes from within. They feel liberated from their emotional constrains and fears. Through therapy, my clients discover that "They" are the creators and drivers of their own lives. They experience emotional freedom that, in turn brings more balance in their lives. Clients achieve stress relief, improve their self-esteem and self-concept, and experience increased levels of satisfaction in their relationships. They experience an increased ability to work out conflicts in a constructive way.

I enjoy working primarily with individuals who have a history of interpersonal violence. I especially feel honored to journey with those navigating their relationships as they work through their trauma history. I recognize how one's racial, cultural, and faith background impact recovery and welcome integrating these components in therapy. I also take time to explore how childhood experiences shape the individual and current relationships. My hope is that, through our time together, you will gain greater insight into yourself, which will contribute to your flourishing and the flourishing of your relationships.

Therapy begins as a conversation and progresses into a relationship that serves as a base to explore present and past difficulties. My initial focus on description and detail of the presenting problem aids others in understanding their experience further, and often this increased understanding serves to lessen pain and hurt.

People are more resilient and insightful than they realize. My goal is to help clients tap into these strengths while providing a supportive yet challenging space for growth.

I balance empathy with constructive challenges, helping clients trust their intuition, build resilience, and develop coping strategies. Together, we work toward self-awareness, meaningful goals, and a more fulfilling, balanced life.

I believe that the stories we tell ourselves have a profound impact on the choices we make, the limits we place on ourselves, and the ways we respond to our experiences. Many of these stories were authored by someone else, created in times that no longer match the realities of the present, or have been repeated so many times that we consider them facts. With compassion, curiosity, and humor, I’ll work with you to uncover the stories that may no longer be serving you.
