About My Clients
Perhaps you’re here because you’re an adult ready to do deep work to connect with yourself in the present, make sense of your past, and plan for the most kick-ass future version of yourself. Maybe you have your life mostly “together” but things still just feel off. You know that you’re carrying baggage from your past, and you’re ready to tackle that head-on. Or, you’re a Millennial or Gen Z person just struggling to exist without the overwhelming feeling of existential dread and anxiety!
My Background and Approach
I show up to sessions as a real, present, and transparent person and allow my full personality to shine through! You can expect humor, some foul language, honest reactions, and a supportive but straightforward approach to supporting your growth. You are not reaching out to a therapist to talk to a robot, so I will never be that. (Although AI is scarily convincing these days!) Although I prioritize building rapport and providing a safe space for my clients, I also pride myself in effectively utilizing evidence-based practices, primarily originating from the cognitive umbrella (all therapies that deal with your thoughts and responses to them). My preferred trinity of modalities- ACT, EMDR, and DBT provide an arsenal of healing interventions proven to propel healing. You are the expert on yourself and your experience, and I am the expert on therapy- together we will make a powerful team!
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I show up to sessions as my authentic self! This means that I am not a "blank slate" style therapist, and believe it is incredibly vital to healing to discuss all factors contributing to distress, including (but not limited to!) the impact of racial and cultural factors, sexism, transphobia, homophobia, misogyny, generational and religious trauma, colonization, current political climate, and late-stage capitalism on mental health. No topic is off limits, and I can promise a safe space to explore all facets of your experience.
