About My Clients
My clients often feel stuck in past trauma or patterns that started in their family of origin. They have high anxiety, low self worth, feel shame, relationships are being affected, and confusion around their identity. Others need help navigating non-monogamy, working through jealousy, establishing boundaries, improving communication, and building emotional connection. I want to help free you from trauma and live in alignment with your values without fear.
My Background and Approach
I am versed and integrate a few different treatment strategies in my practice depending on your unique situation. I will help you learn mindfulness and coping strategies to help you stop spiraling and stay in the present. I will teach you how trauma, family, and long-term relationships affect how you interact in the present. I will help you look for themes and unhealthy assumptions, so that you are aware and able to challenge your thoughts moving forward. I will help you process and validate your experience, build trust in yourself, and re-write your narrative to serve you in the present. I will help you identify goals and develop strategies to change your behavior. I am skilled at helping individuals and couples navigate feelings that happen in the shift to non-monogamy. We will discuss attachment wounds, jealousy, compersion, communication, time management, ethical concerns, relationship structures, and life goals and possibilities.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am pansexual and polyamorous since 2017. I had my own transformative experience through therapy as I came to understand how my family of origin affected me. I am a survivor of domestic violence. I found healing in my chosen family and have deep roots in the east coast burner community. I am leftist, feminist, a social activist, and I speak up for LGBTQ and people of color. I am a nerd of many varieties. I love music, boardgames, cooking, traveling, and hockey. I'm often preparing for my next concert or regional burn. I love to learn. I am always reading and striving to become a more competent therapist. I love what I do and find true purpose in helping clients feel whole.
