Are you someone who often wonders if life will always feel like a struggle? You might find yourself experiencing chronic depression, anxiety, unsustainable relationship patterns, and low self worth wondering if it is even possible for that to change. If you’re sick and tired of being sick and tired, you’re not alone. As a clinician I aim to build a relationship where we can work together to unpack your experiences, understand life patterns, and create healing. I focus on creating space for clients of all identities to meet their goals in order to reach their full potential.
My specific lens centers around helping clients better their relationship with themselves through empowerment and self exploration utilizing evidence based modalities. I am passionate about assisting clients who are wanting to address difficult memories, traumatic experiences, turbulent relationships, gender dysphoria, and other significant life changes.
Contact me today and let’s get started on personalizing your treatment in order to live the life you deserve! I have flexible scheduling hours and will do my best to meet your needs.
