Introduction

With the understanding that no two people fit the same mold, I offer an eclectic, holistic approach to empower and support clients. I work with adults navigating/exploring trauma and abuse recovery, parenting and caregiving challenges, PTSD, chronic illness, gender and sexuality, ADHD, anxiety disorders, depression, stress management, life transitions, and relationship issues. I deeply enjoy challenging shame and stigma surrounding all expansive and marginal identities. I take into consideration each person’s unique needs and experiences to tailor a healing and welcoming safe space, providing a warm and compassionate environment to encourage growth and change. I am trauma-informed, harm-reductive, and social justice-oriented. I operate from a feminist, HAES perspective and utilize empathic listening, CBT, ACT, DBT, Somatic, and Mindfulness techniques. My passion and skills live within client-centered, trauma-informed practices. Rather than pursuing “happiness”, we will focus on nurturing meaningfulness and purpose, empowering you to live a life that is authentically yours.
