I’m passionate about working with young women and LGBTQIA+ individuals exploring identity, building confidence, and seeking a stronger sense of self. Together, we enhance self-esteem, self-worth, and independence by challenging negative beliefs often shaped by societal expectations. We co-create a collaborative space to set personal goals and develop a plan for a life aligned with true values and strengths, focusing on navigating external pressures without compromising authenticity. This approach builds resilience and self-assurance, empowering clients to live authentically.
With me, you have a partner dedicated to your unique journey and wellbeing. I prioritize your needs, not my agenda, recognizing that what works for one may not work for another. You’re encouraged to be open if something doesn’t feel right—I’m here to adjust and adapt until we find the best approach to support your growth.
Mental health and self-care are vital to overall wellbeing. I offer a nonjudgmental, caring space where you can feel safe and heard. My approach is to walk beside you, supporting rather than pushing or pulling. I value authenticity, genuineness, and building a strong therapeutic relationship to empower you on your path to healing and growth.
