If you are struggling with worry, stress, depression, loss, relationship challenges, or just want to build a better understanding of yourself, I hope you will reach out. Ruth Benedict states, "The trouble with life isn't that there is no answer; it's that there are so many answers". I believe that therapy can help us see the many possibilities around us, and make the choices that best align with our unique personal values and hopes. I'm excited to engage in that exploration with you.
I've been in the trauma and mental health field since 2008, and became a therapist in 2015. I created Peace Lily Therapy, PLLC in 2022. I use yoga and mindfulness, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, as well as a host of other tools, within the lens of trauma-informed care and harm reduction.
I have seen the incredible growth that happens in safe, therapeutic relationships, so the first priority of therapy is to build that relationship. It takes bravery to take that first step. Please consider a free consultation with me, to see if we are a good fit. I hope that you will reach out.
