If you’ve made it here, I’m sure you’d like to feel more in control and powerful without neglecting the people and things you care about. The problem is that daily stressors, illness, family pressures, lack of boundaries and trauma keep us feeling stuck and emotionally overwhelmed. Therapy helps us clarify our values, increases emotional resilience, decreases overall stress, allows us to feel understood and gives us our power back. I work with women ages 19+ and the LGBTQ+ population to help you achieve these goals in a safe, affirming environment.
I approach therapy holistically, taking into account your thoughts, emotions, physical health, relationships and the larger social-political context. Our work together will focus on creating meaning while helping you to manage feel better overall. Additionally, I practice EMDR and the Safe and Sound Protocol for nervous system resiliency.
The therapy room should be a safe, nurturing environment for you to address issues that have caused you pain or confusion. It is my belief that the client-therapist relationship is the foundation for change, so I tailor each session to meet your needs and goals. We will work together to develop solutions that promote healing and growth in your life.
