About My Clients
My clients are usually both nervous and eager to start therapy. They're looking for space to process things they haven't felt able to process with others, or in need of a place where they can explore their true feelings and get more in touch with themselves. Many of the clients I work with are aware of changes they might want to make, including reevaluating relationships or shifting patterns they recognize are no longer serving them. They're ready to connect with a therapist who "gets" them.
My Background and Approach
As a person and therapist, I value humor, warmth, and transparency. I’m a relational therapist, which means I bring my full, authentic self to our sessions. My sessions have a conversational feel to them, and I'll ask questions meant to deepen your self-exploration. I won’t spend our sessions just nodding my head and taking notes, I will roll up my sleeves and join you in your healing process. I believe in the healing power of the therapeutic relationship and view therapy as a space to make sense of your life experiences with someone who can fully see, know, and understand you. I’m often a good fit for clients who are new to therapy or have had trouble feeling an authentic connection with previous therapists. I take a social justice-oriented, anti-oppressive approach to therapy, and my priority is to provide trauma-informed, culturally sensitive care. I am welcoming and affirming of all intersections of race, ethnicity, size, ability, faith, sexuality, and gender identity/expression.
