About My Clients
Perhaps on the outside you appear to be happy and have it all together, but deep down you secretly unfulfilled and anxious because you've built a life based on perfectionism, people pleasing and living up to other people's standards and expectations for what your life "should" look like. You're finally ready to explore and break free of the habits, thoughts and behaviors that are keeping you stuck, and develop a more deeply connected relationship with yourself and the people you love.
My Background and Approach
For the last 10 years I've worked with clients just like you as both a licensed therapist and certified coach. I’m passionate about empowering you to shift the stories that are no longer serving you, so that you can make peace with your past, find your power and purpose in the present moment, and feel more deeply fulfilled than you ever thought possible. Due to my training I may operate differently than a traditionally trained talk therapist in that I take an integrative approach where I blend practical elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, emotion-focused Inner Child Work, mindfulness and body-based Somatic Experiencing to help you develop a sense of safety and security within yourself. From this space you will be able to create a solid foundation on which to stand, in order to intentionally move forward toward building your most authentic life. You will walk away from our sessions with tangible and practical action steps you can apply to your life right away.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am a well-trained therapist and coach but I am also a human, and will always connect with you in a very real and human way that doe not feel sterile, rigid or judgmental. I believe that we are often hurt in relationship and that we heal in relationship and I want our relationship to be a safe space for you to heal. I often joke that I was born a therapist because I am endlessly curious and have always found find human behavior fascinating. I believe that every human is worthy and deserving of experiencing healing, growth and transformation and that it is possible for everyone. I believe in the process and have actively participated in my own therapy and coaching to navigate through what it means to walk through the world as a biracial woman and recover from spiritual trauma. When I'm not working you'll find me reading, writing (I'm a published author), walking (typically listening to my favorite podcast), exploring a new city or rewatching Bridgerton for the 100th time.
