Maybe you want a space to process changes that are happening or you are struggling to figure out the next right steps to create the life you want. You want to live your life confidently, as the fullest version of yourself, but you are feeling alone or ashamed or overwhelmed. Or maybe you want to feel more connected to your partner, but you keep leaving interactions with them feeling like they just aren’t getting where you’re coming from. It's so easy to feel like you're stuck in the same patterns.
I want to help you come back into connection with yourself and each other. Together we can understand the emotions driving you and help you get clear on what you want your next steps to be. I especially enjoy working with LGBTQIA+ and neurodivergent folks and people in nontraditional relationship structures.
I know finding a therapist can be a difficult process and I want you to find what feels like a good fit. I'm happy to answer any questions about me and my working style. I look forward to hearing from you!
