About My Clients
My counseling style is collaborative and empowering, with a focus on cultivating a therapeutic environment that invites authenticity, embodiment, trust, insight, creativity, and humor. Within a safe, empathetic, and nonjudgmental space, I invite you to examine inner beliefs and how they shape your behaviors, relationships, and emotional wellbeing. I believe that, with compassion and curiosity, sitting in the present with what is can be truly transformational.
My Background and Approach
My approach is humanistic, existential, holistic, and mindfulness based. I will meet you where you are at with warmth and compassion while also gently challenging you to break old patterns that may no longer serve you. I am trained in providing trauma-informed care, including EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), a trauma-processing intervention. Breathwork, guided meditation, Emotional Freedom Technique, and parts work are other tools I might incorporate in our work together, though sessions are personalized to your goals and individual needs.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am profoundly grateful for the growth, healing, and awakening I have had in my life, and consider my counseling work an expression of that gratitude. It is an honor to engage in the meaningful work of holding space for others as they develop greater authenticity, resilience, wholeness, and wellbeing. I believe that caring for our emotional health is just as important as – and indivisible from – tending to our physical health. When we process emotions and experiences in healthy ways, we create better relationships with ourselves and others and contribute to cultivating healthier communities around us. I am body-positive, feminist, and committed to the ethics of cultural humility. I welcome clients from all gender, sexual, racial, religious, and cultural identities and am dedicated to the self-education, advocacy, and introspection needed to maintain a safe and identity-affirming therapeutic space.
