I long for vitality - for you, for me, for everyone. I am passionate about supporting individuals as they grow in self-compassion, identifying values, and boundaries. I am relational, engaged, trauma informed, feminist, & passionate about supporting folks in the LGBTQ+ community. I care deeply for those navigating spiritual upheaval and loss of belonging. I team up with you to create a supportive and safe environment within the counseling relationship to focus on your goals and needs. For more information or to email me, please visit my website (linked to the left).
I provide individual counseling for adults processing struggles related to identity, self-compassion, food/body image, spiritual upheaval/deconstruction/reconstruction, LGBTQ+, relational harm, narcissistic abuse, separation/divorce, grief, singleness, boundaries, family relationships, and life transitions.
Reaching out for counseling can feel overwhelming and unknown. I'd love to help make the process smooth for you and worth your energy. I see counseling as a sacred space and a commitment that we make to ourselves and those closest to us in order to care for ourselves during various seasons in our lives. It would be my honor to partner with you.
