It can feel vulnerable to acknowledge that you’re struggling, but it’s my belief that there is a lot of strength in that willingness to be open and seek change. I strive to honor that by providing an environment of safety, acceptance, and empowerment. My approach is described as easy-going, direct and nonjudgmental. I respect my clients’ needs and embrace the opportunity to work with people of diverse backgrounds, identities, life experiences and relationships (including ENM/polyamorous). I really value being a safe person for my clients in a world that can feel unsafe, especially for the LGBTQIA2S+ community of which l'm a part of.
People often find they have coping mechanisms that no longer serve them. I find balance by supporting while also challenging you, to create change as well as self-compassion. My goal is to help you find relief through expanded self-awareness, practical tools, healing of old wounds, reconnection to your voice/power, and shifting out of old/unhelpful patterns.
I have expertise and a passion for trauma recovery, identity exploration (including gender & sexual identity), navigating systems of oppression, attachment, and relational concerns. I’ve specialized in EMDR for 11 years, and utilize polyvagal mindfulness, parts work, DBT, CBT, and ERP- with my approach being tailored to each client’s unique needs and goals

I believe therapy should be collaborative, and I really value clients who come ready to work just as hard as I do in support of their goals.
