You’ve spent years being the strong one for everyone else, you might feel lost, overwhelmed, or unsure who you are underneath it all. I help people across the rainbow spectrum who are healing from trauma, especially those leaving controlling environments or exploring identity later in life. You don’t have to have the right words or clear goals—just a sense that something isn’t right is enough. Therapy can be a place to finally exhale and begin to feel like yourself.
I provide a space where you don’t have to minimize your experiences or take care of anyone else. You are in control of your therapy. From there, we begin to learn how to create a new path so that the past no longer controls your future.
I bring both professional training and lived experience into my work, creating an affirming and nonjudgmental space for a diverse range of clients. If you’re feeling uncertain but know you can’t keep doing things the same way, therapy can be a place to start.
