My highest ambition in my work with clients is to help you to discover your own inherent strengths, resources, wisdom, and power, and to help you to cultivate compassion for yourself through mindfulness, radical self acceptance and self compassion. I have experience working with anxiety, depression, OCD, grief and loss, life transitions, family of origin issues, relationship challenges (including ethical non monogamy and polyamory related), sexual orientation and gender identity questions, vocational and existential concerns.
The foundation of my training as a counselor is humanistic, client-centered, relational, & systems based. I have trained in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, meditation, internal family systems and somatic experiencing. I strive to bring an embodied, queer, anti-racist and intersectional feminist lens to my work with clients.
If you struggle with anxiety, have experienced a recent significant loss, are experiencing relationship difficulties, craving vocational change, face a harsh inner critic, struggle with perfectionism, or grapple with life's essential meaning or your sense of purpose or belonging - I invite you to contact me. I look forward to hearing from you!
