About My Clients
I work with adult clients, 18+ of all gender identities, sexualities, races, religions, abilities, and sizes. I work well with people looking to: cope with depression, anxiety, or life changes, explore emotions and experiences on a deeper level, challenge societal norms (toxic masculinity, gender norms and binaries, diet culture, etc), and work towards self-discovery to create lasting behavioral and relational change.
My Background and Approach
Both my undergraduate and graduate degrees are in Social Work; promoting social justice is an important part of my life, and practice. I am sensitive to the power imbalance between client and therapist, and pull from my social work background to ensure sessions are collaborative and clients' needs are prioritized. Clients can expect empathy, compassion, directness, and humor in our sessions; my ultimate goal is to help you heal and flourish in your life. I naturally work from a strengths-based, client-centered perspective and feel that collaboration and rapport are key components in the therapeutic process. I find the connection and depth of sessions are greater when we both bring our whole selves into the room, so you can expect my reactions and emotions to be authentic during our sessions. That being said, I believe the best approach is the one that works for you, so I pull from multiple other therapeutic modalities and theories, in order to best instill self-understanding.
