Many praises already for taking steps to support yourself! I practice Somatic Psychotherapy, which allows my Clients to get to know themselves deeply, building a fruitful relationship with their thoughts, sensations, and internal resources. I support Clients in meeting them where they are at, highlighting strengths and goals with deep compassion.
I work with youth and adults learning to manage anxiety, depression, neurodiversity, all LGBTQ+ support & overall support in all life transitions.
I am an adaptable, warm, and sensitive person who hopes therapy can provide a safe space to work through potentially challenging things. I appreciate bringing in compassion, reflection, enthusiasm, appreciation, and curiosity.
