About My Clients
My passion is helping the LGBTQIA+ community to find satisfaction in their life. Including setting boundaries, exploring traumas and life stressors, as well as understand our behavioral and communication patterns that might be hindering our other relationships. I enjoy working with young adults to address anxiety, depression, past and current traumas/stressors and relationship difficulties.
My Background and Approach
I started my career working in an adolescent residential program and have continued working with adolescent, children and adults throughout my career. I worked with children and families doing in home therapy and then transitioned to working with adults in outpatient therapy. I utilize a person centered, strength-based approach with a focus on somatic therapies to help you feel and understand your emotions in a more in depth way. The two main approaches in my tool box are T.R.I.P (Trauma Regulation & Integration Process) and Brainspotting. I incorporate elements of other therapies such as talk therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solution focused therapy, psychoeducation, motivational interviewing, trauma informed approach and mindfulness to help you better address the parts of your life you are looking to address.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that therapy should feel safe, where you can be your full self—laugh, cry, and grow. As an advocate for, and member of, the LGBTQIA+ community and the Black Lives Matter movement, I am committed to creating an inclusive, affirming space where every person feels supported in their journey of healing.
