Great to meet you!

Are you ready to grow into who you are becoming and move beyond being limited by who you’ve been and what you experienced in the past? Experiencing trauma often cuts people off from parts of themselves and can make it difficult to experience the present moment and move forward. In therapy I aim to create a warm and supportive space where you can embrace the fullness of yourself in a way that allows for healing, insight, clarity and positive change.

My approach to therapy

Using psychodynamic talk therapy, grounding and mindfulness practices we will explore your thoughts, sensations and emotions as they come up in sessions. For individuals experiencing addiction I use a harm reduction approach that will support you in making incremental changes to your behavior. My art background helps me tap into people’s innate creativity and imagination that can be accessed as an integral part of healing and transformation.

What you can expect from me

I believe that you are the expert of your life, and I will encourage you to uncover and connect to your own inner wisdom and strengths to create change. Together, we will identify tools that will support you develop insight, increase self-acceptance and make new meaning out of challenging life experiences. I am LGBTQAI affirming and look forward to hearing from you!
