Hello! I am Riley. My counseling approach centers on Narrative Therapy and integrates Attachment and Somatic interventions. I believe we learn stories about “how to be” and “who we are” from our families, communities, and cultural expectations. Often, these external messages don’t align with our most authentic selves, and it can feel painful to choose between satisfying others or living our truth. By noticing when our bodies feel stressed, we can begin to partner with the wisdom of the nervous system to illuminate and untangle these internalized expectations.
I work with individuals ages 12 and up, supporting clients through challenges such as trauma, ADHD, identity development, and life transitions. I believe in the power of humor, movement, and creative expression in the healing process, and I encourage clients to connect with their bodies while nurturing healthier relationships with themselves and others.
The world can often feel overwhelming, but therapy offers space to clarify your authentic self and move toward a life that feels grounded and whole. Together, we’ll foster a safe and compassionate environment for the vulnerable work of healing and growth. I feel honored to walk this path alongside you—including the messy parts. I am accepting new clients.
