About My Clients
I help high conflict couples who feel disconnected emotionally and physically see themselves and each other compassionately to have the relationship they want. I help individuals who are perfectionists and people-pleasers get out of the "shoulds" reclaim their unique selves for a more pleasure-filled and connected life.
My Background and Approach
My approach to therapy is warm and candid. Most people I work with are as likely to laugh as they are to cry in our appointments. I feel that therapy is collaborative and should feel like a place where you are comfortable enough to share what concerns you but challenged enough to see positive changes in your life. I want you to leave each session with a better relationship with yourself and those around you. I am a health at every size, body inclusive, and sex positive therapist. Essentially I believe a connected and pleasure filled life is a worthy pursuit in a world that emphasizes "perfection".
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I pursued becoming a marriage and family therapist because of the central view that we are all impacted by the systems around us, from our family of origin to our lives' social structure. When I provide individual and relational therapy, I am always considering how these systems influence the client(s) I am working with and myself. I am passionate about ending diet culture and building up body inclusivity that allows for all bodies to feel valid and deserving of joy. I affirm and celebrate all gender identities and full expression of sexuality. I support the Black Lives Matter movement, believe that no one is illegal on stolen land, and that science is real.
