As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I view relationships as significant to how we grow and when we suffer. Our past & present relationships and messages we receive from society can influence how we relate to ourselves & others. Providing a safe & welcoming space, we can explore how you’ve learned to hide or protect important parts of yourself and find what works for you to authentically connect & deepen your relationships. Collaborating together about what you need or want from therapy is an important part of my approach to therapy as you are the expert of your life. I use mindfulness, compassion & empathy, and intersectional feminist theories to understand how have others & society influenced your development. I also have a passion to create a safe, welcoming space for 2SLGBTQIA+ folks & partners, plus working with people who might describe themselves as sensitive or neurodivergent. Hopefully our work together leads to deeper, more meaningful connection with others and expression of your genuine, authentic self.
