Hey there! This is your friendly neighborhood Gothippie Therapist! I believe in creating a safe and affirming space where everyone feels truly heard, seen, and accepted. I understand the deep pain of feeling invisible and judged, and the exhaustion that comes with navigating life with a chronic illness. I have a particular passion for helping those who struggle with impulse control, self-harm, and suicidal thoughts. I know these experiences often bring intense shame or a feeling of guilt, making it even harder to reach out for support. I sincerely want to help you live your best life worth living.
My therapeutic approach is rooted in DBT and CBT, and I draw from a variety of modalities to create a personalized treatment experience that resonates with you. I believe healing through creativity can be powerful and am open to using our imaginations to incorporate arts and music into our sessions, allowing for cathartic expression and emotional release.
I want to help you find hope, strength, and resilience, even in the face of adversity. I want to take you on a side quest where we can explore unique and creative paths to healing, and harness the restorative power of nature and self-expression. Let's work together to celebrate your individuality and foster the change you seek.
