Welcome to my profile, and thank you for taking the time to read it. If you're feeling stuck or overwhelmed by your thoughts and emotions, I'm here to help. I specialize in working with adults who were raised by emotionally immature or personality disordered parents, guiding them on a journey to understand their complex feelings and cultivate a strong sense of self-trust. Additionally, I have experience assisting transgender individuals, navigating relationship concerns, facilitating multiracial identity development, and supporting clients dealing with depression.

My hope for my clients is that the tools learned and experienced in the therapeutic space can be integrated into daily life to strengthen connections to self, others and the natural world. I have experience working with adults, marginalized populations, refugees, LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC. Areas of focus include grief & loss, multigenerational trauma, political/climate anxiety, academic/work related anxiety, major life transitions, codependency and attachment.

I support individuals who struggle with relationships, who have difficulty advocating for themselves and who are transitioning through challenging times. We will explore and validate how your attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors helped you survive earlier stressors but currently limit you. We will bring a greater awareness and a deeper understanding of your feelings. Over time, you will be able to release defensive habits that prevent access to your true nature - authenticity, integrity, and passion. I am here to support your journey of healing and growth so you can create the life that you long for.

In order to shift anything, one must reach, with a gentle touch, the parts of ourselves that are able to transform. It’s only human to want to heal in order to function at our optimal capacity, whatever that might be for us. I passionately hold that we could all use a way to slow down our rapidly evolving lives—a way to hold space for what drives us forward, or slows us down in ways we’d like to speed up. Therapy is a space to peel back layers to help you move toward being fully expressed, in steady, easy participation with your life—even with its inevitable ups and downs and the in-between spaces.
