About My Clients

My clients will appreciate therapy that is both gentle and contains challenging questions and emotional exploration. It's my belief that everyone retains capacity for change at every point in their lives. If change is something you are hoping for, I sincerely believe that with what is within your control, change is possible. This belief is accompanied by the ever-present need to rest and be patient with oneself. If you are interested in this kind of care, please reach out.

My Background and Approach

I offer trauma-informed, client-centered, narrative therapy with particular focus on issues including boundary-setting, religious trauma, grief, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflict, women's issues, academic stress, family history, codependency, body image struggles, and experiences of anti-fat bias. We can work together towards growth and healing by helping you begin to recognize emotions in your body, coming alongside each other to process through trauma, and ultimately empowering you to understand and care for yourself as a whole being comprised of all of your experiences, sensations, and feelings. I find that therapy is most valuable when it is focused on the specific goals that you bring, and my own hopes for our work together include lowering distress, becoming better acquainted with your own agency, encouraging growth towards self-acceptance, building trust in yourself, and increasing your capacity to love.
