Do you keep getting an uneasy feeling that you can't put words to? Do you struggle to be yourself? Do you need to constantly be doing something? Do you overthink what you will say, did say, or want to say? You are not alone. We live in a society where we're told we "should" be this and we "shouldn't" be that. It can be exhausting when we just want to be. During therapy I strive to provide a warm and welcoming environment where clients feel safe to be who they are and talk without judgment. I will get a better understanding of who you are and where you'd like to be, and together we will work on developing ways to get you to your goal
I use a variety of approaches that all focus on looking at the individual as a whole, rather than just a diagnosis. I primarily use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which uses metaphors and analogies to help connect to feelings, release stuck thoughts, and align with values. I love creatively incorporating client's interests into therapy
I recognize that reaching out for help may be scary and that starting therapy can seem overwhelming. You've already taken a big step just by being here to read this. Throughout therapy, I will unconditionally support you while also challenging you to take the next steps on your path to where you want to be. I am an LGBTQ+ affirming therapist.
