Life is challenging, and for some, it feels impossible. Unwelcome and harmful thoughts and feelings make happiness a task that seems far out of reach. It can be overwhelming, and it can negatively affect the way we function in our day to day lives. If this speaks to you, I want you to know that you are not alone, and I would be honored to help you work toward a happier, more fulfilling life.
I use an Existential Therapy approach to counseling, with influences of Feminist and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques. I also have experience integrating techniques from other theories that mold treatments to each individual client’s needs. I have a history of working with depression, anxiety, grief, trauma, burnout, self-esteem issues and more.
I have a special interest in working with the elderly and LGBTQIA2S+ populations through their unique life struggles. I believe therapy should be collaborative and consider myself a guide for those I serve, dedicated to assisting and supporting them through their journeys of self-discovery, purpose, healing, and growth. Contact me today to get started!
