About My Clients
My clients want to deepen their sense of self, build stronger relationships, recover from the impacts trauma, interrupt generational and collective trauma patterns, move through anxiety and depression, and find ways to navigate the state of the world while still finding joy, ease, love, belonging, and meaningful resistance to harmful systems. They have some aspect of their identity or experience that makes them feel different, and grapple to reconcile who they are with the world around them.
My Background and Approach
My style is curious and playful, non-judgemental, and full of deep care and humility. My approach to therapy is integrative, and I draw from many theoretical frameworks in my work with clients. I view therapy as an opportunity for intentional collaboration, skill-building and the sharing of resources and helpful tools within a deeply supportive space. I recognize that individuals’ experiences are deeply rooted in the social, cultural, historical, and political context, and I view personal healing and growth as intimately intertwined with building a more just and equitable world on a systems level. Therapy can look a lot of different ways, and we will adapt according to your needs, goals, and desires. As a baseline, I strive to create space for people to be exactly who and how they are, to dismantle shame and stigma, and to safely muck around in the messiness, vulnerability and exquisite beauty and difficulty of being human.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that everyone is doing their absolute best with the tools, resources, skills and knowledge that they have available to them. And that everyone deserves radical kindness and fierce support - no matter what they are facing or have experienced. I believe we all have the right to joy, rest, connection, love, and community care. I am deeply committed to anti-oppressive practice, and pushing back on white supremacy, neoliberal capitalism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, and other systems that harm people. I believe that disconnect (from self, from others, from the natural world) contributes to trauma, and that healing happens in building and rebuilding liberatory connections.
