What would your life look like if you were safe with your mind, body and spirit? What areas of your life feel disconnected from your true values and authentic self? Are you looking for support and tools while navigating anxiety, depression, self-doubt? The stressors and challenges of life can sometimes leave us feeling unequipped. In the therapeutic relationship, we build a trusting space; getting curious about your beliefs, habits and environment. Why are you stuck? What thoughts, beliefs and relationships are nourishing you? What's blocking you from developing new healthy habits, connecting with loved ones, practicing self care?
I believe in my clients' capacities to grow, evolve and improve. I utilize cognitive behavioral, trauma informed, person-centered, mindfulness, and strength based practices. My approach is holistic, accounting for the ways your past, environment, culture, physical habits, and systems impact well being. I honor that healing involves both joy and grief.
I enjoy working with children, teens, adults and families. I respect the various cultures, backgrounds, and gender expressions of my clients. Our therapeutic relationship will help you re-discover the knowledge that you’re worthy and whole. If you are looking for an affirming, empowering and safe space to reclaim your life, let’s connect!
