The clients I work with have oftentimes felt disenfranchised and misunderstood. They put forth amazing effort, but continue to struggle in finding a path out of cycles of survival, trauma, and scarcity. They are interested in their own growth and change across a variety of realms - relationships, family, identity, and purpose. They are open to self-reflection, even though it can be scary. Goals include: learning to be interdependent instead of people pleasing, finding a sense of self after a life of trauma, slowing cycles of self-harm & suicidal ideation, moving from self-loathing to peace, and navigating systemic violence.
I offer support through an attachment-based and trauma-informed lens. I have crafted specialties around LGBTQIA+ issues, particularly trans and gender-expansive client needs, structural dissociation/DID, and adult autism. I offer an intentional relationship for my clients to explore the terrain you believe is important, and facilitate change you choose.
My deepest hope is that clients find the person who is right for them at this moment. I offer a 30 minute phone consultation so we can decide together if what I offer fits what you seek. If my profile and website intrigue you, I hope to hear from you soon!
