This is not an easy time for many people to be alive. If you're struggling with "burnout" or feeling numb, overwhelmed, or depressed, it makes a lot of sense. I am an ideal therapist for someone who wants support or to improve their coping and their wellness, without pathologizing the body's natural responses to a traumatizing world.
I believe healthy relationships are fundamental to our emotional well-being and fulfillment as humans and this includes relationship to self. Many of us were not raised with the benefit of relationships that fostered self-love, but it's never too late to develop ways to care for our whole selves.
I'm a fat, queer, neurodivergent woman with 15 years of experience providing counseling.
I have worked with individuals and families facing many challenges, including relationship issues, trauma, ADHD, addiction, grief, depression, and anxiety.
I work to maintain cultural humility and an ongoing education in trauma informed practices.
Whatever you may be struggling with, and whatever your comfort level is in talking about it, my goal is to help you identify current challenges and a path forward that works for you. There is no fee for an initial consultation and if I am not able to address what you are struggling with, I may be able to point you in the direction of someone who can.
