Immediate availability! Do you feel as though no matter how hard you try, you are always falling short? You are not alone. I often hear that my clients feel isolated and disconnected from aspects of their lives that they feel passionate about. I am a systems-focused therapist - meaning that I take into account the ways that systems in your life - your family, friends, school, workplace, state of the world, etc. affect your day to day functioning.
Through our work together, we will strive to confront the aspects of your life that keep you feeling stuck through the use of evidence-based therapeutic practices (listed below), as well as creating a strong therapeutic relationship that fosters trust and acceptance.
In our sessions, you can expect humor, compassion, and a side of straightforward feedback. I am a LGBTQIA+ affirming provider who is always striving to create emotional safety and increase my own cultural competence. I encourage all clients, current and future, to show up to our work in a way that feels authentic to themselves.
