We are born into story and expectations. Sometimes, being ourselves is not safe. Without nurturing relationships, we work hard to survive on our own. We may avoid belonging or over-focus on fitting in. Options feel limited, our choices are not our own. You may achieve the ‘right’ education, profession, presentation or partner, but does it feel right for you? Deciphering our feelings can unleash many questions, and overwhelm. The good news is, you do not have to face change alone. Trust is a practice we can write together. Our stories are ours for the telling–and loving.
I ground you in your strengths, and anchor you in your present power. As shame or guilt arise, I offer compassion and accountability. Therapy is a collaborative discovery of you. We’ll pay attention to your feelings, the signals of needs and wants. Previously, feelings may have required denial. Here, they’re stars in your sky guiding you home.
We all bring nuanced lineages to therapy. I work from a trauma informed, anti-oppressive lens to affirm your experience. AEDP, IFS and psychodynamic therapy are creative tools for change. With a background in performance, I center your body, non-verbal expressions, rhythms and imagination. If this resonates, please reach out to schedule a consultation.

When taught you're not enough, your own desires can be hard to define and pursue. Belonging may feel risky. I work with clients to explore themselves and their feelings, to build trust, confidence & self-advocacy skills. In relationships, at work, or in community, you deserve reciprocity and love.
