About My Clients
Having been on the other side of the chair, I want to you know that the healing process is in your capable hands. This is a challenge but you have everything you need to thrive already with you. Let me be there to reflect, hold space, encourage, and guide you to higher levels of awareness. Together we can create a treatment plan to support the navigation of your emotions, symptoms, communications, and the systems you are a part of.
My Background and Approach
I am formerly a PreK-5 educator and I bring direct, creative, effervescent, nurturing, and bright energy to sessions. We will brainstorm and co-create your treatment plan using expressive techniques, behavior tracking, psycho-education, cathartic interventions, and trauma-informed cognitive challenging. I help clients become their best selves by identifying behaviors, exploring symptoms, and maneuvering creatively. I work from a multicultural and gender-affirming lens.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that now is a pivotal time in the rights of queer people. I am an activist prior to being a therapist and healing and supporting my community is of the utmost importance to me. The way I see it, if I can help someone reach stability and manage symptoms, they can go out and be the best they can be. We all have important work to do! Sometimes that might just be getting out of bed. We are all doing the best we can. I know this intimately as neurodivergent person who has struggled with mental health my whole life. I now have the training to jump in and help people where they are at and with a deep understanding of where some of my clients are coming from. Finally, I am fairly alternative. I belong to the kink and polyamory communities. I have found that many therapists have attached stigma to these dynamics and I want to provide the space to be someone who can truly hold space and already knows the language.
