See Video Introduction at bottom of page.

You want to feel seen, supported and accepted. You are feeling stuck and seeking connection, a better understanding of yourself, and a new perspective. You are open to a path that challenges societal expectations and allows for more peace, authenticity, and growth.

Living authentically and crafting a life that feels satisfying isn’t easy! Throughout my lived experience, I have worked through wounds that led me to believe I was alone, awkward, and not good enough for this world. There are times we all feel this way! You do not have to continue to work through these feelings alone. You deserve to live a rich, meaningful life and I am here to support you along the way.

Therapy sounds scary. You are opening yourself up again to someone new. Will they understand me? Your concerns are completely valid, and I know what it is like to be in the client seat. You are the expert of your life, and I will meet you with compassion, acceptance, and safety as we walk alongside each other. We will identify the areas of your life that you would like support with; explore your values, aspirations, and previous experiences; and work collaboratively to develop new strategies and perspectives that can open you to a new way of living.
