THERAPY FOR A HARSH WORLD
Let's Slow Down Together.
I take my time with my clients to understand their identities, challenges, hopes, and internal resources. We collaborate in identifying the power of choice we have when faced with uncertainty. My goal in this tender work with all of my clients is that we move to a place of responding rather than reacting to life's unfolding.
I provide a holistic approach to therapy, serving adults of all genders. I use an interwoven approach to counseling, tailoring my work to the individual needs and strengths of each client. I primarily draw from Intersectional Feminist ideas and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), an evidence-based approach that helps clients make observable and powerful behavior changes in their lives.

I BELIEVE:
- Identity, larger social systems, culture, and context have a huge impact on our mental health.
-We may have become stuck in ways that reflect our life experience of needing to survive or stay safe.
-The body holds sacred wisdom for healing. We can work with our nervous systems to support our mental health.
-We are all growth oriented. Growth is not linear.
-We heal in relationship with one another. No human was built to get through life alone.
-All bodies are intelligent, good, valid, and worthy.
-We are all human, and we are doing the best we can with what we have. There is no such thing as perfection.
