Finding a safe space to explore your identity and heal from past wounds can feel overwhelming, especially when being queer in a world that doesn't always understand you. Whether you're grappling with the impact of anxiety or depression, the shadows of trauma, or the complexities of self-discovery within the LGBTQ+ community, you deserve a compassionate guide. Together, we will untangle the knots of your past and nurture the growth of your true authentic self. Every journey to healing begins with hope, and I am here to walk this path alongside you, providing support, understanding, and unwavering acceptance.
With 3yrs supporting tweens & teens in the CPS system, I understand the impact of life’s challenges on young hearts. I've also dedicated over a year helping young adults navigate life's transitions, mental health struggles, & the process of embracing their identities. We'll work together to build self-trust, take accountability, & embrace your unique goals.
Ready to take the first step toward healing and self-discovery? I invite you to submit a request here on Psychology Today or visit my website to schedule a consultation call. Let’s begin your journey toward a more fulfilling and authentic life today. Please note, my services are self-pay only ($100 per session) as health insurance is Not accepted.
