My approach to client care will always consider culture. Culture can have a lot variables, shaping each person uniquely. I love helping people who feel trapped in the pressures of life's transitions. If you're battling perfectionism, body image issues, or struggling with balancing masculine and feminine energies, I'm your girl. My ideal client is seeking independence, grappling with the confines of the patriarchy and diet culture. Together, we'll navigate through eating disorders, depression, trauma, CPTSD, anxiety, OCD, and adjustment disorders. Let's get started!

I tend to tailor my approach to each client, focusing on symptom relief and long-term strategies to manage future challenges. I offer EMDR, Somatic Experiences, CBT/DBT skills, narrative therapy and genuine supportive care. I also offer puppy support, free of charge, from our support specialist, Pongo.

I believe we need to break free from limitations and embrace a life of authenticity and empowerment. If you're ready to embark on this transformative journey, reach out. You deserve to live a life that celebrates your uniqueness and strength.
