About My Clients

If you've been feeling like enough is enough, or have been carrying around your pain or stress for too long I welcome you. Maybe you're feeling stuck in unhelpful thought patterns, or disconnected from your drive. Living with pain, hurt, worries, or a desire for change brings you out of the peace of the present. Let's find a way to bring you back to it.

My Background and Approach

My approach in this process is an integrative one. We will first explore what brought you here and why at this moment in time. We'll learn about your goals, and how you've been able to make it this far. Once we've built this common understanding we can then incorporate skills like deep breathing and mindfulness, and work to change up behaviors that are no longer serving you. We will re-write your story into one where you are in control. We will celebrate your victories, and hold your hurt. This is a space where you learn that it's safe to feel your emotions, and do so in a way that allows you to take back your power.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

We're all human and all have different identities. I understand the intersectionality of people, and that different parts of your identify may not be welcome in certain spaces, and how painful this is. Your whole will always be welcome in this space. I know that Black Lives Matter, and maintain anti-racist and anti-oppressive practices and lens's in both my professional and personal life. I acknowledge that this space has historically been centered on Whiteness. I am an ally to LGBTQIA folx. At the root of it, I maintain that it's not our impact, but our intentions, that matter, and for too long most of us have been holding space for others' intentions rather than holding the impact they have made on us.
