About My Clients

Do you feel like you never quite fit the mold, or are you carrying heavy baggage from the past? My ideal client is the unique non-conformer who is tired of past trauma and family dysfunction blocking their goals. You might struggle with boundaries, self-doubt, and feeling stuck. You want real relief and the freedom to finally be yourself. Let's unlearn the tools that no longer serve you. I'm a down-to-earth, direct guide who celebrates your whole life—pets, passions, and all! Ready to chat?

My Background and Approach

I became a therapist because I know what it feels like to feel unseen or misunderstood. As a trauma survivor myself, I bring deep passion and empathy to my specialty: complex trauma and difficult family dynamics. The truth is, we all developed brilliant coping mechanisms that helped us to survive the past, but they often keep us stuck today. My approach is warm, direct, and non-judgmental. We work collaboratively to unlearn those old patterns and pick up new, healthier ways of coping. I frequently use powerful modalities like EMDR to process the past, providing real relief from anxiety, depression, and the cycle of feeling stuck. My goal is to meet you where you are and illuminate the blind spots that are holding you back. You are the expert of your life; I’m here to support your goals so you can finally embrace your whole, authentic self.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

At the heart of my work is a simple, non-negotiable belief: everyone deserves and wants to be loved. We all yearn to be fully accepted, understood, and truly heard. When those fundamental needs are consistently missed, we start believing something is wrong with us. That's where the "too much, too loud, too weird" feeling comes from. If you've ever felt like you don't quite fit, you are absolutely in the right place—I am one of you! I celebrate diversity and uniqueness in every form because our quirks are often our greatest strengths. There's no need to filter or edit yourself here. My belief is that true, lasting happiness isn't about changing who you are; it's about deeply accepting and loving the person you already are. Getting comfortable in your own skin is the ultimate goal. When you fully step into your authentic self and recognize your own worth, you naturally start choosing situations and surrounding yourself with people who truly see, celebrate, and deserve you.
