Have you ever been told you’re "too sensitive" or "too much"? What about "not enough"? Have you felt pressured to meet other’s expectations and disregard your own needs, feelings and wants? If this feels true, you are not alone. I have experience working with individuals through their traumas, shame, anxiety, anger, depression, identity issues, life transition, relationship troubles, grief, and heartache. I believe therapy looks different for each individual depending on what they are needing from the therapeutic space. Sometimes it’s using humor to bring connection, other times it’s processing tough challenges without judgement.
What you are needing from the therapeutic space is important to me. I encourage and guide individuals to step into their deeper selves to identify what they are needing most to meet their goals. I use the tools I have to collaborate on new perspectives and facilitate self-discovery to empower individuals to make the changes they see fit.
Engaging in therapy can feel very vulnerable, especially if it’s your first time. Being open with someone new can be tough, but know that you are not alone in that. Everyone deserves the space to be who they are, process their feelings and feel supported. I am ready to go at your pace and follow your lead on this journey!

I specialize in highly sensitive personalities. It is a priority to cultivate a safe comforting space for client's to be their authentic selves without worrying about a therapist's judgement. I believe it is important to meet clients where they are at and explore deeper parts with curiosity at a pace that feels safe. I embrace humor, personality quirks and other oddities that life holds!

I believe going deeper at your pace is a key element in treatment. I lean towards using attachment-based, trauma-focused, internal family systems, and emotionally focused therapy methods to help do so. The first step to these methods is building a safe relationship between the therapist and client. Cultivating that safety and trust is a critical part of that process.
