You’ve always felt like it was easier to be and do what other people wanted, but now you’re not so sure. You're the person who wants to speak up at the staff meeting (or at least whisper), tell your aunt you prefer "they/them" pronouns, and heal from the thing you've been carrying. Instead you’re feeling like you have to put on a mask to keep from getting rejected. Too often, you are rehashing your conversations, overthinking, second guessing, and people pleasing. You’re not even sure what you’re thinking and feeling.

So let’s say, instead of the usual talk therapy session—and going with a therapist who takes your insurance or is a convenient five-minute drive away—you choose the therapist who can actually bring you relief. Imagine waking up finally feeling calm, understood, and seeing all areas of your life start to change—for the better.

With a dry sense of humor and a sprinkle of cursing, I can help you find relief and change your life through tailored EMDR therapy for perfectionists, people pleasers, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and neurodivergent folks. Sign up for a free 15-minute consult to see if we’re a good fit.

I use EMDR, acceptance and commitment therapy, and internal family systems. In your first session, we'll explore what brought you to therapy and what your goals are. From there, therapy is focused on helping you understand yourself better, letting go of what feels stuck, and to be your most authentic self.
