About My Clients

The weight you are carrying is real. It may be the pain of the past, the pressures of daily life, or the lack of something indescribable. Over time you may have begun to feel exhausted, overwhelmed, and ashamed for not being able to keep up with it all. You don’t have to carry that weight alone anymore.

My Background and Approach

I aim to tailor my therapeutic approach to your individual needs and circumstances. Therapy should be about YOU and starts with compassion and understanding. Everything you bring to my office is welcome. I believe therapy works best when skill building is combined with a process that facilitates self-compassion, belonging, and meaning making. I began my career studying psychedelic therapy, where I learned that we all have an innate healing wisdom that we can reconnect to.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I am committed to honoring each of my clients as a whole person through a non-pathologizing and trauma informed lens. I believe that even our most challenging feelings and patterns are a result of an attempt to cope with an often unbearable environment. The parts of us that dealt with this pain are worthy of our listening, respect, and love. I am committed to honoring our differences and placing you as the expert in your own story, while continuing to do my part to increase my awareness of stories that differ from my own.
