Experienced, Informed, Supportive, Non-judgemental
Therapy should be like a birdhouse- a safe place in which to seek refuge from the storm of life while you rest your soul, unburden your mind, and rebuild your strength. I strive to provide you with a sense of security as I help you understand your behavior, organize your mind, let go of unhealthy patterns from the past, develop new skills, and ultimately reveal your best life. I have extensive experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and families and thrive on helping my clients unfold their wings and fly.
I have worked in rehabilitative mental health since 2006 and have been a practicing therapist since 2013 working with cases involving anxiety, depression, PTSD, compulsive disorders, chronic illness, life transitions, abuse, sexual crimes, gender identity, and unhealthy relationships. I have specialized training in sexual abuse and trauma, somatic and integrative interventions, gender identity, and sexuality.
Over the years I've heard clients express that they put off seeking help because they thought their problems weren't "bad" enough, but any issue that is in any way disruptive to your happiness is worthy of help, and you are worthy of support. I look forward to helping you find your strength so that you may rise above whatever has held you back.
