About My Clients
Are you struggling to connect with your passion and creativity? You've lost your sense of purpose, you're struggling with emotions that get the better of you, and your relationships are suffering as a result. You know something needs to change, but you're not sure how to get started. You deserve to reclaim your sense of identity and self-determination. Connecting with your values and learning strategies can help you steer your life in the direction you want to go. I look forward to meeting you.
My Background and Approach
My approach is to be a collaborative partner in therapy. I create a safe space for you to explore and learn about yourself. I integrate bibliotherapy, values, and active skill building to help you make peace with past trauma, build self-compassion in the present moment, and take joyful steps into your future. Together, we'll review what's getting in the way of living the life you want, as well as take inventory of your strengths and skills. Along the way, I'll offer strategies for you to try, new perspectives to consider, and potential resources to add to your community. My offerings are based in the latest evidence, along with over twelve years of practice and my own experiences. You'll gain meaningful relationships and creative approaches to whatever life throws at you.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe it is no accident that you are here, now. Yours is a life of purpose, with unlimited capacity for learning and joy. It is through relationship that we discover ourselves more fully, and I hold the therapeutic relationship as a sacred part of your community. As a queer, mixed race woman, I believe a safe space is an absolute necessity before you will feel comfortable practicing vulnerability, and I work hard to co-create that safe space with you. Exploring all the parts of your identity is integral to connecting to your values, goals, and dreams, and I love celebrating those unique threads of your tapestry. I believe that art, and creativity, are integral pieces of our wellness and are a necessary step on the path to healing. What creativity looks like in therapy will be unique to you. I look forward to learning about your unique, creative gifts.
