I see you and know you’re hurting. Thank you for looking for support and being ready to show up for yourself. Everyone needs a cheerleader and at times, a guide through life. Personally, it took me time to ask for help and I am so glad that I did. Through therapy you can learn how to trust your instincts, bring awareness to habitual patterns, and reshape coping skills that are no longer serving you. I invite you to explore your inner nature and fine tune your resiliency skills as you navigate the ever-changing, beautiful world around you. With the use of creativity, humor and mindfulness I am confident we will meet your goals. I am excited to support you on your continued journey towards radical self love and joy. I specialize helping those looking to increase self confidence, decrease anxiety and depression, develop interpersonal skills, and heal from past traumas (emotional, physical, and sexual). Are you learning to set boundaries, healing from generational trauma, or needing to get out in nature? Or are you exploring gender identity, non binary identity, sexual orientation, inter-sectional identities, a new career, recent move, unemployment, or just feeling stuck? If so, I think we would be a great fit. I earned a Master’s degree in 2012 from the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, with a focus in Expressive Art Therapy and other evidenced-based, trauma informed modalities. I have practiced extensively in community clinics and consider my consumers to be my best teachers. I specialize in a gentle, person-centered approach, striving to make each session comfortable, collaborative, creative, and restorative.
