The last thing we wish for in the midst of struggle is to feel shame for our human experiences. We often benefit from having another person to partner with during our healing process. It is especially important that we are in the presence of a person who is genuine in creating a space for us that is safe, inclusive, and nurturing. I admire you for taking this step for yourself and I hope you might find it with me - where I will strive to facilitate an environment where you feel free enough to come as you are. I believe that together we can discover the type of love towards yourself that could lead you to a life filled with joy.My greatest joy in the therapeutic process is helping others connect with themselves so they may uncover their innate ability to live their most meaningful, most fulfilled life. I view the counseling process through a person-centered lens- which means that I value and uphold empathy, congruence, authenticity, and acceptance of your unique values and needs.My approach is warm, compassionate, and grounded in trauma-informed acceptance-based approaches. I work with adults and teens of all genders and I am LGBQIA+ affirming and sex-positive. I work collaboratively with my clients to support them in healing from trauma, women's issues, anxiety, and body image issues. Request a consultation for more details.
