My ideal client is someone who feels overwhelmed by the weight of their experiences, whether they are struggling with past trauma, grappling with the effects of societal pressures, or seeking to understand and embrace their cultural and/or sexual identity. They may feel isolated, confused, or stuck in patterns that prevent them from living the life they desire. Their goals are often to feel more in control of their emotions, build healthier relationships, and achieve a greater sense of self-acceptance and empowerment.

I am glad you have made it this far on your journey. Typically the clients I work with have had experiences in life that have been traumatic, often early on. They have coped through these but the wounds are not yet fully healed. Those memories hold power over their present and they are seeking a different future where they are feeling lighter, freer, more fully their true selves. They value connection with others and want to process the challenges that keep cropping up. Trauma impacts us in seen and unseen ways, and at certain points in life we hear our inner intuition - the need to feel heard, understood and guided towards healing.

My work with people is very directive and focuses on the strengths in each person while noting what wasn't working. Clearly identifying the obstacles to healthier ways of relating and then very specifically identifying how to shift into new and effective ways of relating. My way of working is humanistic and I keep my client informed as we go...empowering them to "own" what we discover so they can transform the aspects of themselves and their lives. My approach is non-pathologizing, strength-based and solution-focused.
