About My Clients
I am driven to work with populations that have been marginalized in our society and culture. This includes but is not limited to LGBTQ+, Polyamory, and Kink communities as well as individuals that are living in a multiracial home and existence. Living on what feels like the border of society is stressful, even more if your close family and loved ones don’t accept who you are. I want to provide a safe space to address the unique and regular concerns of individuals that are unheard.
My Background and Approach
I received my Master's degree in Forensic Psychology from Adler University. I practice MultiModal Therapy (MMT) which means that I will utilize more than one treatment modality to work with you based on your needs. I utilize proven therapy techniques to assist you in being able to heal and to eventually to help yourself. Allowing you to eventually reach the point of coping without intervention from myself. This doesn't happen overnight, it is a process that takes investment from both of us to make small changes that will create a long standing difference. I have in experience providing motivational talk therapy, CBT, and I am trained in basic EMDR therapy. Specializations are trauma, anxiety, depression, and grief. My professional philosophy can be summed up in the acronym PUP. Process your past Understand you present Plan for the future For more information on my methods please refer to my website.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I became a therapist due to a desire to help those that have survived trauma. To demonstrate compassion and provide a non-judgmental space. To show individuals that they have value and are valued. We all deserve a space to be safe, express our concerns and be validated. I am personally familiar with how the interplay of religion, trauma, being queer and POC makes it particularly difficult to locate people and places that both are safe and feel safe.
