About My Clients
Hi there, I am a queer therapist and I approach therapy through a collaborative and relational lens. I aim to offer support to clients in developing a deeper and more nuanced understanding of their emotional experiences, behavior patterns, and thought processes. Together, we will work to understand motivations and desires, relationship dynamics, and develop an increased sense of internal and relational security and safety.
My Background and Approach
My goal is to help clients gain an understanding of who they are and what they need in the context of their relationships, systems, and environments. My approach is psychodynamic, relationally oriented, and trauma informed. I believe it is in and through relationships that we can begin to experience connection and an understanding of ourselves and the things we need. My background includes working in residential treatment for eating disorders and working with LGBTQ+ adults in an out-patient setting.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that everyone deserves relational connection and belonging, but not everyone has had access to this experience. In therapy, I aim to create a space for all the parts of a client to exist and be seen, especially the parts that have endured betrayal and pain. In my own experience, therapy has given me the opportunity to discover and come to know the different parts of my own self that had been forced to be repressed and learn to offer care and compassion to these parts. I have also learned that the process of therapy is about an unfolding of truth rather than reaching an end goal. I hope that together, my clients and I can find meaning and connection within their stories and embrace ambiguity.
