Do people assume you have it all together, but you're struggling with feelings of anxiety, depression, or trauma that overwhelm your thoughts and emotions? Maybe you want to feel as confident and in control (on the inside) as other people think you are on the outside. You may look like you've got it all together, whether a mother or a corporate executive, but sometimes even the "strong one" needs support. I use an attachment-focused, trauma-informed, and intersectional approach to help you explore identity (race, gender, sexuality), family, and significant life events, so you can experience being heard, supported, and empowered.
I focus on creating a safe, affirming space for you to begin healing. I have spent over two decades working with people of all ages, backgrounds, and life experiences, providing care that helps alleviate emotional distress. I am trained in IFS; I am an EMDR Certified therapist and offer EMDR Intensive sessions. I also offer Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy.
You've come this far, and finding the right therapist is a critical step toward self-care that can have a meaningful and positive impact on how you feel about and live your life. Email me today, and let's schedule an appointment so you can get started on your journey of self-understanding and healing.
