About My Clients
Maybe your relationship is stuck in the same cycle of conflict: one of you shuts down and the other pushes harder. You feel more alone and exhausted with every fight. Or maybe you feel stuck in your own mind. Perhaps anxiety or OCD quietly runs your life. Maybe perfectionism and people-pleasing have slowly replaced your true personality. Perhaps you’re in the middle of a lonely process of untangling old beliefs, trying to figure out what’s actually true. Wherever you feel stuck, I can help.
My Background and Approach
I'm a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Associate (LCMHCA) who specializes in counseling for couples, anxiety, and OCD. With couples, I use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), an approach founded on attachment science. Instead of communication skills to fight politely, I help couples get underneath their cycle to find comfort and connection. For individuals, I draw on Inference-Based CBT (I-CBT) for OCD and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) for anxiety, perfectionism, and people-pleasing. These approaches help clients trust themselves, find calm, and rebuild a life worth living. Alongside my MA in Counseling, I also hold a Master of Divinity which informs my work with clients navigating faith transitions or religious deconstruction. Know that there’s no judgment or agenda here, just a space to find healing on your terms. My style is collaborative, authentic, and grounded in attunement. I pair gentle challenging with unconditional acceptance to help you reach your goals.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I'm LGBTQ+ affirming and do my best to be an ally. I helped craft my faith community's official statement of affirmation because I believe queer folks deserve to be celebrated fully, especially in faith spaces. I also live with a chronic illness that I've had since middle school, though I only received an official diagnosis two years ago. I know how it feels to doubt yourself, get dismissed by providers, and fight to be believed about your own body. I've also done my own faith deconstruction, so I hold my current spirituality with an open hand. Your beliefs, doubts, questions, or lack of belief are all welcome here. Whether you're leaving a faith tradition, rebuilding one, or somewhere in between, this is a space without agenda or judgment. No matter your background, beliefs, experiences, identities, or culture, I believe that everyone deserves a space where they feel accepted and supported. Your full humanity is welcome in this space.
