I wholeheartedly believe the greatest and most freeing gifts you can give yourself are self-exploration and compassion. Together, we can work collaboratively to further develop these qualities and foster your innate resilience. My goal is for you to feel safe, challenged, and empowered during our time together. The sheer fact that you are seeking support demonstrates immense strength. As a psychotherapist, I aim to create a non-judgmental, open-minded, and secure environment for clients to explore their feelings candidly and honestly. I utilize a variety of techniques and tailor treatment to the unique needs of the client.
I use an approach called Psychodynamic Therapy which focuses on gaining insight into past and present behaviors, as well as deepening overall self-awareness. Furthermore, I draw from these therapeutic modalities: EFT, IFS, and AEDP. I specialize in sexuality and am committed to the promotion of dignity for the 2slgbtqia+ community. All identities welcomed.
My training has primarily been with teens and adults experiencing a wide array of topics including sexual abuse, complicated grief, religious trauma, anxiety, family conflict, depression, loss, and identify exploration. I have and continue to undergo my own personal therapy. I look forward to hearing from you.
I am currently accepting new clients.
