About My Clients
You're good at hiding it but inside you feel alone and overwhelmed. Asking for help wasn’t a safe option in the past so now you can’t help but feel like a burden when you need support. And sometimes it feels like your relationships are surface level or one-sided. Please know that you’re not alone! People who experienced chaotic or unstable childhoods often feel this way, and it is possible to heal and live the fulfilling life that you deserve.
My Background and Approach
I'm a certified trauma therapist (CCTP) integrating relational, somatic, and psychodynamic-based interventions in my work to help clients feel calm and more empowered to show up authentically in their daily lives. After working with me clients know what tools and resources are available to them, both internal and external. Beginning therapy can feel overwhelming, but it doesn't have to. With a warm, accepting, down to earth style I offer clients a truly welcoming space to unmask. For people-pleasers who struggle to take up space, this is where you get to show up authentically and unapologetically. Message me here if you're curious to find out about whether or not we would be a good fit. I'd be happy to help you in your search, whether it ends with working with me or someone else.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that overcoming mental health issues and healing from trauma shouldn't mean accepting that the problem is located inside you. Our sense of who we are and what we're worth is developed in a social, familial, and political context, as well as our sense of what others expect from us and how they respond to us. I believe that for many people, healing means acknowledging the ways that we’ve been harmed by oppressive structures and realizing that we are not what we’ve been told about ourselves.
