I love working with clients who are curious about what more there is to experience in this life, who are ready to do the work of diving within in order to heal past wounds and create a life that they truly love.

I'm committed to walking with you while you get back to yourself by processing all that you've been through.

Affirmations can improve mental health, increase self-esteem, & cultivate a positive mindset through the brain's ability to rewire itself, also known as "neuroplasticity." Consistent practice strengthens positive neural pathways & influences mood by releasing feel-good neurochemicals like dopamine and serotonin. Are you ready to start your journey towards self acceptance? Read the following:
"Everyone wants to live on top of the mountain, but all the happiness and growth occurs while you're climbing it" – Andy Rooney.
Notice how that feels to love yourself.

For some, this may be because you are questioning your gender or sexual identity. For others, it may be the not so simple fact that existing as a trans and/or queer person in this world can be HARD.

Anger, anxiety, depression, shame, and challenges with self-identity are often rooted in unresolved trauma. When left unaddressed, trauma can deeply impact our relationships and family dynamics. As your therapist, my goal is to collaborate with you in managing trauma-related symptoms and moving toward a more meaningful, fulfilling life. I use a client-centered approach to create a safe and supportive space where unresolved emotions and reactions can be explored. I believe that the therapeutic relationship itself is just as important as the modality used because healing begins with trust, connection, and the freedom to be vulnerable.
