Because everyone has unique needs, preferences, goals, and personalities, a personalized approach is essential, as engaging with you utilizing a "one size fits all" approach will more than likely do you a disservice. I'm here to collaborate with you in overcoming daily challenges, whether rooted in your past or present, so you can thrive. As an integrative and holistic therapist, I combine various therapeutic approaches to tailor therapy to your needs, free from modality boundaries. If you prefer a specific approach, that option is also available.
In our work together, we can explore the root causes of unhealthy coping mechanisms and patterns, learn new, healthy coping tools to transform negative behaviors and thought patterns, and support you in discovering your authentic self and living a confident, fulfilling life. I've helped many people gain clarity and self-acceptance by teaching coping strategies for immediate stressors and processing core issues and trauma.
With over a decade of experience, I've worked with diverse clients, including children, teens, adults, couples, and families from various cultures, lifestyles, ethnicities, LGBTQIA+, and socio-economic backgrounds. I am a sex-positive therapist, sex worker-friendly, and kink-aware. By providing a safe, non-judgmental space for you to express your thoughts and feelings, we can work together in individualized therapy to promote your personal growth and wellness holistically.
What are your expectations or goals for therapy, and for me as your therapist? Please feel free to share them, or we can explore and set some together.
NAME A BOOK THAT SHAPED WHO YOU ARE...
HOW BABIES ARE MADE By ANDREW C. ANDRY AND STEVEN SCHEPP
This book sparked the first of many important conversations with my mother, discussions that I'm not sure would have happened otherwise. Her open and shame-free approach to topics like sex, sexuality, and the human body made these subjects feel as normal to discuss as anything else.
The "knowledge" I gained even made me quite popular on the playground! More importantly, this book initiated many dialogues within my family and among my peers, and it gave me the comfort to discuss these important topics freely with anyone.
