About My Clients

You struggle with feeling stuck, alone, dark doubt creeping in. This is hard and you need a little help figuring it out. I'm here for you! I work well with people in transitional spaces (new job/new relationship status/new self-identity/career change/etc.) - if personal growth is your MO I've got you! I vibe with people who are creating new boundaries, understandings, & expectations with their family of origins. My clients are funny, compassionate, and endearingly human, just like me!

My Background and Approach

I work with clients collaboratively to help navigate the challenges of life by being warm, nonjudgmental, and curious. I believe in the importance of integrating past and present experiences. In a session with me, you can expect genuineness, respect, and compassion. I utilize a trauma informed, person-centered approach with an attachment lens to help you gain a deeper understanding of who you are and how to move forward. I hope during our work together you gain insight, confidence, better communication skills, and self-acceptance.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

It's never too late to get to where you want to be. Bad things in your past don't define you - You can re-start, re-write, & re-do as often as you need to. That's the thing, you know what you need. I can help you untangle it but you hold so much power. The stories we tell ourselves get convoluted by outside voices but when we learn to listen to all parts of ourselves, healing truly occurs. A future free of loneliness, low self-esteem, self-sabotage, guilt, and fear waits for you. Let's find it together.
