My therapeutic approach focuses on addressing the ways external factors, namely the client’s environment, experiences, relationships and prior traumas have contributed to their current state. Given the world we live in I bring considerable attention to the ways that systems of oppression play a role in the client’s wellbeing. I believe that having an understanding of how these factors are impacting our mental health is integral to healing. As we work on building this awareness we can start making intentional choices more in line with the lives we would like to be living.
I often work with people who are dealing with issues of identity related to gender, sexual orientation, interpersonal conflict and inherited trauma. Often these issues have led my clients to suffer from feelings of anxiety, helplessness, insecurity, inertia and dejection. Primarily my clients are looking to lead lives that feel fuller and more authentic.
Depending on your unique situation and needs I hope to support you on your journey by serving as a listener, a confidante, an advocate, an educator, a voice of reason and a cheerleader. Please email me to set up a free consultation and provide a bit of information about what you are looking for. I look forward to hearing from you. Take good care.
