It takes an extraordinary amount of strength and courage to recognize that you need support and to go through the process of choosing someone to trust and share your story with. I want to commend you for making that effort and assure you that I will not take it lightly. I work with individuals who are dealing with a wide range of challenges. If you are dealing with the effects of trauma, I can help you navigate its impact on your daily life as you work to integrate lessons from the past and find hope for the future. Anxiety and depression can be debilitating constraints leaving you feeling stuck, together we can work to understand their underlying causes and find effective ways to help you reconnect to your values and a renewed sense of agency. A common feature of trauma, anxiety and depression is isolation, leading to a feeling of alienation from yourself and others. My hope is that our work can guide you towards reconnection, an enriched relationship with yourself, an invigorating relationship with others and an intentional connection to your present moment. I also specialize in helping those navigating loss; whether related to religion, culture, community or a significant relationship. These experiences can bring grief, disorientation, and leave us feeling as though we are “not enough.” I would be honored to come alongside you as you process these emotions, and as you work to find meaning and purpose within the. As a meaning-based therapist, I will emphasize your agency and empowerment, helping you utilize your strengths to align your life with your true values. When we meet, we will both bring our own backgrounds, generations, and entire histories into the relationship. We will begin by co-creating an authentic space that feels trusting and safe, allowing you to explore areas of your life that require awareness, processing, and integration.
