Are you feeling consumed with difficulty navigating relationships, negative beliefs about yourself and fear of being vulnerable? It can be incredibly challenging to want to change but feel stuck in the process. We all come from spaces in which we adopt and learn ways to navigate life and relationships, but overtime learn that we may not have all the tools we need to feel successful in various areas. I create space in therapy for you to understand what you need and how to communicate that to those around you.

Navigating life and work transitions, trauma, and grief can be overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone. Caring for others, whether at home or professionally, can be emotionally, mentally, and physically depleting unless you prioritize self-care. I compassionately hold a safe space for you through expressive art-making and attuned listening to process emotions and difficult experiences, release fears and limiting beliefs, heal old wounds, re-awaken joy and ritual, and reclaim your dreams. You do not need to have artistic skills, just be curious and willing to work with the art-making process as your wise inner guide.

New parenthood can leave you feeling stuck in survival mode. You may find yourself struggling with birth trauma, postpartum anxiety, postpartum depression, or just struggling with adjusting to the ways your life has changed. Maybe you can't get off the hamster wheel of no sleep, poor self-care, frustration, irritability, flashbacks, exhaustion and raw emotions. This can put strain on your relationships with others, your baby and yourself. Or perhaps you do not even recognize the person you are becoming. And it can be hard to ask for help while also learning how to care for a new life.

"When 'I' is replaced by 'We' even 'illness' Becomes 'Wellness'" --Malcolm X. This is my approach to therapeutic intervention. Healing the body, mind, and spirit will create overall 'wellness.' Why is it that we make appointments to take care of our physical health, but we seem to ignore our mental health? Therapy doesn’t have to be a scary or painful event, it should be a place where you can open yourself to the journey to reach your full potential. I realize that calling a therapist can be intimidating, but I hope you will take a moment (and maybe a deep breath) to call and see how I can help you.

Life is HARD sometimes. Maybe you are emotionally exhausted and find there are days you don't want to get out of bed. Maybe you worry too much about the future and you are sick and tired of friends saying, "you think too much!" Maybe you find it incredibly difficult to say "NO". Or, maybe a loved one is concerned about you and wants you to see someone. If you find your struggles are getting in the way of your goals and dreams, there IS hope. It takes vulnerability and courage to let someone in, so I applaud you for looking into services. Therapy can help.

Healing happens when we feel safe enough to show up exactly as we are. All parts of you are welcome here. I’m not here to change you or fix you. I don’t think you are “broken” or that there's anything "wrong" with you. Together we'll create an accepting + compassionate environment, with respect for your intuition + body's wisdom underlying all that we do. I’m trauma + social justice-informed and view therapy through an intersectional lens (mind, body, environment, culture). During our time together, we’ll likely look at environmental factors (interpersonal, economic, oppression) that create individual/collective stress and trauma.

Clients often tell me they feel like something is missing or they know what the problem is but can't resolve it on their own. Most are beginning to recognize unhealthy patterns and can't quite understand the origin or how to change. They are distracting themselves from the real issues with self sabotaging behaviors such as overeating, overworking or excessive alcohol intake. Sometimes they just need help adjusting to life changes such as divorce, illness/health changes, partnering, retirement or becoming a parent. I treat a variety of issues/mental health diagnoses including weight management, binge eating disorder, compulsive overeating and bariatric surgery.
