I help clients build strong relationships with their self, and within their most important relationships, so they have a say in their life. This deeply rooted connection becomes incredibly freeing and empowering, making even the most painful experiences feel more stable and meaningful.
Shame, low self-worth, anxiety, depression, and trauma are heavy and disconnecting experiences that I specialize in helping clients lean into, unravel, and move that energy away from outdate beliefs and into current goals.
I know that finding a therapist can be vulnerable and confusing. I aim to create a supportive environment to help you navigate that space. And, if we end up feeling like the right fit, I'd be honored to work with you. Please reach out so we can connect further.
