The act of coming to therapy is a brave one, and you should commend yourself for doing it – you are taking proactive steps to create the life you want. I view therapy as an opportunity for you to evaluate the stories you and others tell about who you are, identify the storylines that are not serving you, and construct new narratives that focus on your strengths which can help you take a more active stance in your life. This process is simple but powerful, and I believe deeply that it can help all of us isolate and move past the problems that have worked their way into our lives, helping us to reclaim our power.
I want you to help you on that path, and I will strive to provide a warm, compassionate, and comfortable environment where we work together to highlight your strengths and achieve your goals. I provide therapy for a range of issues and life stressors, including family relational concerns (couples, parent/child, siblings), worries/anxiety, and faith crisis.
I am an LGTBQ ally, and I strive to bring a multicultural and social-justice focused perspective to the therapy process. Through a therapeutic stance of curiosity and collaboration, I hope to empower you as the expert in your life. I feel honored to be a witness to your story, and I look forward to taking this journey with you.
