About My Clients

There has been so much change in your life with no time to process or take a breath. You can’t afford to fall apart; everyone in your life needs you to keep it together. You’re the most self-aware person you know, but you can’t escape your own mind, even with lots of compulsive googling. Maybe things aren’t working in a role, relationship, or religion, but changing it feels impossible. You’re tired of performing the self that others want.

My Background and Approach

My overarching goal will be to help you move towards what is a fulfilling and healthy life for YOU. Along the way I can provide new coping skills that work. And I try to never take myself too seriously! Therapy with me is a calm and affirming place to be questioning, deconstructing, and/or shouting into the void. I create a safe and stabilizing space to process all the chaos that comes with life changes and express your unfiltered thoughts. I am a trauma-informed professional and seek to keep up with current research in this field, especially in the specialized area of religious trauma. I am able to integrate the language of personality typologies such as the Enneagram/MBTI into therapy, when desired.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

My values as a counselor are openness, respect, & empowerment. I strive for cultural humility and to decolonize my therapeutic practice wherever I can, acknowledging my own privilege. I know what it’s like to want to burn it all down while feeling terrified of the pain of change. I love helping neurodivergent people (ADHD, dyslexia, Autism, HSP, etc) work WITH their spicy/magical brains instead of against them. I myself am a Highly Sensitive Person and know what it's like to "feel too much." I am unapologetically affirming of LGBTQIA+ folks.
