To help others make meaning of their lives and the difficulties we all encounter, I decided to pursue a career in therapy. I enjoy helping people make life changes that prevent them from feeling isolated when they are managing hurts, stress, and trauma. Everyone could gain from therapy, and everyone should have access to a place where they feel heard, understood, and protected. My two main objectives are meeting clients where they are in the process of healing and providing holistic care. Everyb...

My approach to psychotherapy is highly relational. I believe that most of our distress in life, often in the form of anxiety, depression, or uncontrolled anger, arises from unresolved conflicts in our important relationships, past and present, and that psychotherapy works by providing a new relationship-a supportive, empathic one in a which person can explore these important interpersonal connections, come to understand them in new ways, and change them. I focus the dialogue on a person's signif...

I enjoy living in the corners and at the fringes of what stereotypical therapy might look like.

When we work together, I want you to feel like you matter (because you do). If you like the utilization of tarot and oracle cards, we can incorporate that. If you need resources on affirming places to practice spirituality, we can look at those. If you want to talk about kink ...
