Hi! In a world where so many of us regularly get the message that we are flawed, I think it is important to start by saying something that we might not hear so regularly, which is, that it is okay to be you. But if I’m being honest, being yourself is not always an easy thing to do. As a therapist, I place priority in creating a therapy environment where clients feel safe to share the most authentic versions of themselves without fear of judgement. In addition to a safe therapeutic space, my goal is to assist clients on their paths towards self-expression and self-acceptance no matter where they are in their journey

Many of my clients identify as highly sensitive, creative, open, and curious with philosophical and spiritual leanings. They often are helpers and healers who find that they have given so much of themselves to others that they have lost themselves somewhere along the way. As a result, they struggle to set boundaries, ask for what they want and need, and feel disempowered, depressed, and anxious. My clients long to live creative, passionate, purpose-driven lives, but know they need to attend to themselves and to do their own inner work in order to create the life that they truly desire.
