My website
I individualize my approach to meet the needs and goals of each client. I have experience and am honored to work with individuals who are struggling with depression, anxiety, posttraumatic stress, self-injury, suicidal ideation, gender and sexuality issues, phase of life issues, religious trauma, transitional stress, phobias, addictions, and personality disorders. I have specific interest and expertise in treating and resolving complex childhood trauma and the related symptoms of dissociation, flashbacks, nightmares, and hypervigilance.
I am passionate about joining with individuals and helping them to build on their strengths, reconnect to their self and intuition, heal from their past, find peace in the present, and establish new skills to create a preferred future. I have been described by others as approachable, patient, sincere, calm, funny, and empathetic.
I have a passion for working with marginalized populations and proudly stands as an ally to LGBTQIA+ populations. I am kink informed and supportive of all consensual and loving relationships. I employ a validating, nonjudgmental, and collaborative approach to create genuine connections.
