Do you find yourself taking care of others but struggling when it comes to yourself? Perhaps you're seen as "too sensitive" and identify as an empath. Maybe you've been keeping it all together and are hitting a wall. You deserve a space solely for you. I work with people who feel things deeply, supporting in processing trauma, anxiety, life transitions, relationship issues, people pleasing, gender expression, and sexuality. I am committed to social justice and believe mental health does not exist in a vacuum. My approach to therapy is rooted in values of anti-oppression and acknowledging the systemic factors that impact wellbeing.
I am a trained trauma therapist and incorporate somatic, IFS, relational, strengths-based, and attachment-based modalities. My background has allowed me to work with a breadth of clients and diagnoses. I'm dedicated to creating an inclusive and affirming space. I feel passionate about working with the LGBTQ+ community and am trained in EMDR & Brainspotting.
I specialize in helping people go beyond talk therapy and explore emotion in a deeper way through somatics and trauma therapies. I create a collaborative and warm environment where we can explore and get to the root of your needs. I invite you to contact me for a free 15-minute consultation to learn more about working together and see if we are a good fit.
