Specialties:
I specialize in working with individuals experiencing anxiety and depression, particularly those struggling with a loud inner critic and constant rumination. I specialize in helping people-pleasers who are working to differentiate themselves from others and establish healthier boundaries. I also enjoy supporting those going through significant transitions—whether it’s a career change, graduation, a move to a new city, deconstruction of prior beliefs, or a breakup—especially when their old coping mechanisms are no longer effective.
Additionally, I work with individuals navigating spiritual trauma, helping them heal and reconnect with their sense of self and purpose. I understand how much stigma there can be in seeking therapy when coming from a religious or fundamentalist background. I’m particularly skilled at working with those who are feeling burnt out and tired of living with shame and relational anxiety, guiding them toward lasting change and self-empowerment.
Clinical Style & Theoretical Orientation:
I believe that every client is the expert in their own life, and my role is to create a safe space where true exploration and change can occur. I see therapy as a collaborative process, where I seek to understand you, make you feel seen, and guide the journey toward the goals we establish together. I understand how daunting it can feel to think, “This is just the way it’s always been, and this is how it will always be.” It can be hard to imagine that things could be different.
Together, we’ll examine the stories and experiences that have shaped you, the parts of yourself that you love, and the parts that frustrate you, and work to envision a new, more fulfilling narrative.
I enjoy using parts work (IFS) and somatic approaches to integrate mind and body, and I’m especially skilled at walking alongside those who feel burnt out, stuck in perfectionism, or people-pleasing. I also specialize in working with those who are differentiating and deconstructing from a religious system, recovering from religious trauma, or seeking to understand their own spirituality.
I recognize that performers face unique challenges shaped by the demands of their craft. Through our work together, we’ll examine the narratives that have shaped your identity, both the parts that fuel your empowerment and the parts that hold you back. Using a person-centered approach, I’ll guide you in reconnecting with yourself beyond external expectations, helping you integrate mind and body to foster lasting change. I’ll walk with you as you explore your past influences, challenge your inner critic, and envision a more sustainable, fulfilling relationship with your sense of worth.
