Self-Permission Therapy does things differently! What is on offer is counseling of a person-centered nature. This means that therapy could be simpler, warmer, and more optimistic if you were encouraged to focus on your current understanding of things rather than on some unconscious motive or someone else's interpretation of the situation. This places emphasis on your current perception and how you live in the here-and-now, and that's where the work begins!

We have all experienced a time in life where the feelings of stress, anxiety, hurt and confusion can seem near impossible to overcome. Sometimes we may simply just not feel like ourselves. Therapy is an opportunity for you work through those feelings, gain new perspective and maximize the tools already within you. I have a passion for supporting and guiding individuals through their discomfort to get on the other side of it. My goal is to empower you to look within, maximize your full potential and live YOUR truth.

“It's not the load that breaks you down, it's the way you carry it.” ― Lena Horne. Life is an ebb and flow. There are going to be hard times but just like the quote we can't control things that are uncontrollable, but its our outlook and the balance of it all that can give us the power to move forward. Sometimes we want to find that balance and growth, but don't know where to start or how to ask for help. Seeking therapy can feel scary but therapy itself shouldn't.

Hi there! I specialize in somatic and emotions-focused therapy. I work in helping those heal through anxiety, shame, emotional dysregulation, relational challenges and past trauma. I work with those who feel overwhelmed by their emotions or feel lost in their pain from their traumatic experiences. My clients typically feel ready to care for their mental health but have no idea where to start, or maybe have tried traditional talk therapy in the past but are still feeling stuck. I believe all humans are wired to heal, and my job is to help you access this part, and support you as we navigate the emotional pain together.

Sex and relationships can feel like minefields. Maybe communication resembles a boxing match, intimacy is a distant memory, or there’s been cheating, shaking your world to its core. Feeling unlovable, wrestling with unconventional desires, or being scared of intimacy due to past traumas – it’s heavy stuff. It’s not just about mismatched Netflix preferences; it’s about feeling disconnected, unheard, or stuck in a situation you never expected. This is tough territory, and it can feel oh-so-vulnerable to address. But you don’t have to face it alone.
