About My Clients
Whether it’s strengthening your relationship with yourself through developing more self-compassion, guiding you in how to communicate more effectively with your partner, or helping you navigate a rough conflict with your best friend, I am here to provide you with non-judgmental support every step of the way. My clients are often fat folks, queer besties, sex workers, and people experiencing chronic pain or chronic illness. You and your body are whole-heartedly welcome here!
My Background and Approach
I love to move towards present-moment emotional experience when I’m with clients. That often looks like me inviting a client to slow down and notice sensations in their body. We can follow body tension to uncover what may be held underneath the surface and then build more self-compassion, understanding, and awareness. I will always be transparent with you about the ins and outs of the therapeutic process because I believe that collaboration and consent are vital to creating safety and trust in our time together. I bring genuine love and care into my relationship with my clients. Many clients I work with have had trouble receiving love because they’ve felt unworthy or unlovable; I view therapy as a potential cozy space for corrective, reparative experiences that can start to soften clients’ inner experiences. That’s the whole idea behind the name “Soft Spot”: melting away the hardness that our society or trauma forces unto us and, in place, deepening into more of the love.
