Hello! I am so glad that you’re here. Are you feeling a desire for change, but are feeling unsure about where to start? Have you been feeling disconnected from your body, emotions, or others? I understand that, even though life might be challenging right now, addressing what's causing your pain might feel impossible, scary, or even harder than what you’re going through at this moment. It makes sense that you might feel overwhelmed. As a therapist who centers body liberation, I’m committed to helping you navigate whatever is making your life difficult right now while taking an affirming and social justice approach to your care.
I specialize in working with adults and adolescents who feel disconnected from and/or are dissatisfied with how they experience their body, emotions, or relationships. I draw from a mix of therapeutic approaches to help foster safety, autonomy, and empowerment as you navigate life and learn to reconnect with yourself and others.
I believe a vital way to foster mental health is to work towards a world where people feel valued and respected. As your therapist, I will work with you as you explore and connect with your innate strengths and wisdom, and as you process your lived experiences. If you feel we would work well together, please reach out! I look forward to meeting you.
