About My Clients
Life stressors come in all shapes and sizes and navigating them alone can be difficult and exhausting. Having the ability to express yourself freely and without judgment is an essential part of therapy and working towards your goals. Sometimes the struggles we're experiencing can lead us to feel lost, hopeless, and anxious. Learning tools to express yourself, engage in self-care, and create the life you want, can all be achieved in therapy. We're a team, and I look forward to working with you!
My Background and Approach
My goal as a therapist is to provide you with a safe, non-judgmental space for support and feedback. You are the expert in your life and we can work through anything as a team! I specialize in client-centered individual therapy for adults (18+) of any gender and sexual identity. I believe in utilizing a myriad of different modalities with my clients based on what works best for them. Therapy is your time to express yourself and share what is important to you. I have extensive experience with anxiety, depression, substance use, and LGBTQIA+ individuals. In addition, I have over 5 years of experience working with formerly incarcerated individuals who are transitioning back into society. I am a strong believer in trauma-informed care and creating a safe space for all.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As an active member of the LGBTQIA+ community, and someone who has struggled with my sexuality and gender identity for a large portion of my life, I deeply understand the ways we continue to grow and evolve as individuals throughout our lives. I am a very client-focused therapist; therapy is your time and I always make sure to focus on what YOU want to talk about. Some days are harder than others to express our struggles, and that's okay! As a therapist, I don't believe I am here to "preach", but here to support, hold space, learn, guide, and provide feedback when needed. I also understand the importance of creating a strong connection with your therapist and I always value feedback from my clients. If you feel we're not clicking as a team, let's figure out what changes need to be made, and how to move forward, whether it's with myself or another therapist.
