Hello! First, congrats on taking care of yourself by starting therapy. It can be really daunting to find the right match so I encourage you to reach out for a consultation and see if we feel like a good fit. I’ve been working with individuals, couples, and families for about 15 years. People come to me for a variety of reasons, sometimes with specific goals like managing anxiety or getting through grief or navigating a relationship, others just want to improve their mood or process an old, nagging wound. There are no things too small or big; no requirements or timeframes. If you’re ready to feel better, you’re ready for therapy!
My work is conducted through an anti-racist lens, uses intersectional feminism, Queer theory, HAES framework and with the goal of decolonizing mental health as a practice. I provide guidance, technique, perspective and, of course, support for people who have thoughts and feelings they would like to tackle but haven't been successful doing so on their own.
I know how hard it is to find a therapeutic provider; just reaching out, asking the "right" questions, and somehow knowing who might be a good fit, can be completely overwhelming. I think humor, thoughtful creativity and active trust building is the key to providing a safe and healing space.
