My Ideal Client

I work with folks healing from trauma – childhood, religious, sexual, and relational traumas – those exploring their authentic identities, and those who want support in life transitions large and small. I believe that you are the expert of your own experience. Together we will create a space where you can explore deeper layers of your experience, to understand, and potentially reframe, strategies that no longer serve you, and to take steps towards a richer connection with yourself and others.

My Approach to Helping

I help clients using a variety of approaches rooted in emotion, compassion, and curiosity. Emotion Focused Therapy and Internal Family Systems are two modalities that can help you understand, honor, process your internal experiences. I have also received training in interventions (Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy, Neuroaffective Relational Model) that work in present time to support and repair traumatic experiences, explore identity, and strengthen resiliency. Mindfulness and body awareness may also show up in session to release trauma held there and to ground your experience.

More About the People I Treat

I treat adult individuals and couples with an emphasis on LGBTQ+ experiences, ethical separation, divorce and co-parenting, life transitions, religious exploration, grieving, and discernment, family estrangement, moral injury, reconnecting with your body, racial and racialized experiences, misattributed parentage, as well as depression and anxiety issues. Whether you’ve had many counseling experiences, or this is your very first, I look forward to learning about who you are and where you want to go on your path towards healing.
