Is therapy for you? Are you having a hard time? Maybe you don't know what to do and you feel stuck. Maybe you know what you need to do, but still feel stuck. Therapy can help support people when they are having a hard time, especially when their usual coping strategies and support systems aren't enough. Some people want to reduce symptoms while others want to go beyond symptoms and thrive! My clients tend to have a variety of concerns: trauma, anxiety, big feelings, relationships, anxiety, procrastination, perfectionism, navigating multiple cultures and intersectional identities, undergraduate and graduate school challenges.
I like to understand my clients’ concerns in the context of current and past daily life, surrounding people, culture, and sociopolitics. Having a better understanding of new and old underlying patterns within ourselves and around us is important. We can honor them and be intentional about how to navigate through them. Sometimes I can relate!
My goal is to help you move toward healing in a way that feels doable and helpful based on your resources. Learn more about me on my webpage. Feel free to contact me here or there to schedule a free consultation.
