I offer innovative solutions for complex challenges. Maybe people are using labels that seem chronic and don’t accurately reflect either what you are experiencing or what you’ve been through! Maybe you’ve had experiences in treatment that were not ideal or where you did not feel culturally respected or safe. When there is no simple answer for anxiety, depression, emotional pain, neurodivergence, abuse or addictive behavior, maybe it is possible we can find one. I pay attention to things like complex or generational trauma and am prepared to help with things like dissociation, psychosis or hearing voices if that is needed.
I meet you where you are at explore your world. I am non judgemental and enhance safety by being transparent about who I am. I provide support and respect you to make decisions about what is going to work for you. I believe you have what it takes regardless. I work with insurance and within your budget in teletherapy services
As a therapist creativity and innovation are my passions. I can help you process the stuff that is bogging you down, come to an acceptance and plan for better days. I am pursuant of trauma informed modalities and I love to cross cultural divides and break down barriers! Stop by my website and read my blogs. Or set up a free 30-minute consultation.
