Life is full of ups and downs. A big transition, the death of a loved one, or a traumatic event can show up as anxiety, depression, addiction, or even physical pain. These feelings don’t have to linger. With evidence-based therapies, such as EMDR, I can help you overcome traumatic events or simply unhealthy (and often untrue) ways of thinking of yourself and emerge as the “new” you with the clarity, confidence, and joy needed to live the life you deserve.

Are your thoughts and uncontrolled anxiety getting in the way of your happiness? The day in & day out of racing thoughts, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, & feeling like this is NOT the life you signed up for, is getting old. The anxiety in your chest & constant chatter in your mind is exhausting & you feel completely stuck. Talk therapy just hasn’t cut it. It hasn’t been what you needed. Maybe there’s been some small steps of progress here & there but that DEEP healing & that light bulb moment of clarity - where the world stops and everything clicks? That’s what you’re after.

Learning how to navigate the ups and downs life throws at us is a common challenge we all face at some point in our lives. It can be overwhelmingly challenging, creating unhealthy relationship patterns, and leaving people feeling stuck. Unfortunately, many people find it hard to seek help and I would like to help you find a safe place to manage the highs and lows of life. Together, we can work to make sense of difficult experiences, build coping skills, gain confidence, and nurture growth and resilience.

I love to work with queer, neurodivergent people of color and otherwise marginalized adolescents and adults, because of my interest in our collective liberation. I believe therapy is a collaborative effort and that clients are the experts in their own lives. They have the ability to choose how to resolve their problems. Of course, many issues are systemic, but what choices can we make of the things within our control? I use experiential awareness and expressive arts to create a space to develop insight in order to grow and heal.

Just because you can carry your grief doesn’t mean it’s not heavy. Grief can be lonely; overwhelming sadness, feeling numb, guilt, anger, avoidance, or burnout can make you feel disconnected from others and change your perception of yourself and the world around you. With the right help, you can feel better, find meaning in your life, and see beauty in the world again.

Sometimes it can feel as if no one is listening and even if they are, they don't seem to understand us. I like to help others not just find their voice, but also feel understood as well as learn to listen to one another. Not only is communication key in life but also the abilty to understand and accept other's views . There are also times that we as individuals don't always know who we are or how to express ourselves to others, in counseling/therapy we learn so much about ourselves and how to thrive and share the best part of us.
