Yes, you do deserve better! Welcome to a nonjudgmental & nurturing space where you can find compassion for your past & create a new narrative for your future. Trauma, loss, depression, & anxiety can act as thieves robbing you of living your best life; a life filled with true connection, purpose, and hope. It is hard to realize and embrace our strengths when we are overcome by grief, regret, shame, guilt, and low self-worth. Speaking about shame and guilt is instinctually uncomfortable, and yet the very act of revealing these emotions is necessary to eradicate them.
Let me guide you through this journey of self-acceptance. Let us slay the negative messages that leave you ruminating at night and replace them with proactive coping strategies and skills. You deserve peace of mind. I specialize in depression, anxiety, life transitions, and LGBTQIA+ issues.
I utilize different evidence-based therapeutic modalities tailored specifically to the needs of my clients. I believe that our past shapes us & also focus on present and future-focused techniques to aid you in getting “unstuck." My approach is engaging, collaborative & gently directive. I also believe that adding humor and lightness is hugely beneficial!
