About My Clients
I know firsthand how scary reaching out can feel, and I am here to meet you as you take this really vulnerable step. There is no one path to therapy; we each have different lived experiences that might bring us to talk to someone, but the common theme is that we all need somewhere we can feel seen, held, and heard. I hope to be that person for you and walk alongside you as you explore who you are and your goals.
My Background and Approach
My approach to counseling is rooted in both feminist and person-centered multicultural therapy. Still, my main goal is to listen and help you find whatever path and process work best for your lived experiences. Once we enter the counseling space, I am there to learn from you; after all, you are the expert in your experiences and emotions, so I see my role as a companion versus an authority. Working together, we will help you explore who you are and what makes you come alive. We will explore the systems and beliefs that might contribute to your feelings and equip you with the tools and language to advocate for your health and well-being to yourself and others. I can’t wait to meet you and to walk these next steps with you.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Let me tell you a bit about me –I have a passion for women’s mental health and specifically perinatal mental health. I am a mom, an avid reader, lover of flowers, tea, and art. I am also someone who has significantly benefitted from counseling personally. So, when I tell you how big and scary a step talking to a counselor can feel like I understand. I care deeply about cultural understanding and lived experiences, as well as examining the way society affects our beliefs and standards.
