Welcome, This probably isn’t the first step you’ve taken on the path towards your own self-actualization. Often, we get really good at getting by and solving the problem on our own. Sometimes we figure it out, and other times we don’t. Or it works for a while, until we hit a new phase. Or maybe, it’s just too difficult to do the dishes when the world is on fire. I see that you’ve been trying, and I see that life is fucking hard. You may not have reached out to someone before now because a safe space wasn't available.
You may have felt outcasted, or othered, or morally wrong for feeling what you're feeling. I am here to tell you that your experience is morally neutral, and you deserve a place to process it. When we get stuck solving problems on our own, we often become rooted in these complex systems we’ve created, yet to be unearthed.
These existed long before we had any say in the matter, likely from early childhood development. But now you are in control. You get to decide what stays and what has decayed. My task is to be a mirror, to help you see the forest through the trees, and walk alongside you through it.

It is often difficult to find a provider we feel safe opening up to, especially if we have to lay the groundwork for understanding our identity. I am LGBTQIA, Polyamorous, Kink, and Pagan Allied. I also love working with severe and persistent mental illness. Together we will dive deep to gain a better understanding on where your distress is coming from.

I operate through the lens of Schema Therapy. From there, I take a holistic, eclectic approach so that I can meet you where you're at. I utilize approaches from trauma-informed CBT, Narrative therapy, Mindfulness, etc. This allows us to gain insight into what you've used to survive this far, and what is no longer serving you.
