About My Clients
My clients are individuals, couples, and families navigating infertility, addiction recovery, trauma healing, grief, and relationship challenges. I specialize in marital and premarital counseling, offering a supportive space for LGBTQIA+ and Kink Allied individuals to explore and heal.
My Background and Approach
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) Associate with Level 2 training in Gottman Method Couples Therapy, I bring extensive experience supporting adolescents, families, parents. My background includes roles in diverse settings such as juvenile detention centers, residential treatment facilities, intensive outpatient programs, and private practice. Clients benefit from my specialized training in Gottman Method, which equips me to help couples enhance communication, manage conflicts, and strengthen intimacy effectively. Whether navigating relationship challenges, parenting issues, or adolescent behavioral concerns, I offer evidence-based strategies tailored to individual needs. My work in various clinical environments has honed my ability to provide compassionate and effective therapy, fostering healing and growth. In my private practice, I create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients can explore their concerns related to infertility, grief, trauma, and relationships.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
As an experiential therapist, I hold the belief that every person's perception is valid and worthy of respect. I understand that individuals can hold differing views that are equally valid, fostering an environment where multiple truths can coexist harmoniously. This perspective allows me to facilitate therapy sessions that honor each client's unique experiences and perspectives without judgment. Having personally navigated a journey of sexual identity, I strongly affirm the validity of all sexualities, gender identities, and identities in general. I advocate for inclusivity and acceptance in therapy, creating a safe space where individuals can explore and express their authentic selves without fear of discrimination or misunderstanding. Central to my therapeutic approach is the belief in fostering vulnerability and intimacy within relationships, including the relationship with oneself. I strive to cultivate a therapeutic environment characterized by trust, empathy, and openness.
