Seeking therapy is one of the most courageous steps you can take. Whether you want to heal past wounds, resolve conflict in your relationship/s, or better manage the stressors of life, therapy is the space where your goals and values are prioritized. It is where you can feel safe to be vulnerable and open. Because there is no singular way to engage in treatment, therapy does not conform to strict constructs, norms, or stereotypes. Rather, therapy is meant to reflect your authentic self and promote the innate power you hold.
Our therapeutic journey is centered on your skills, knowledge, expertise, and resilience. I pay special attention not to reproduce oppressive or harmful practices that can occur in therapy and my commitment to intersectionality allows us to explore how all the unique facets of your identity are impacted by greater systemic forces. Furthermore, my work is rooted in Feminist, Critical Race, and Queer theories that allow us to uncover the assumptions you may hold within your lived experiences so that we can ultimately create new and affirming meaning for your life.
Although my work is eclectic regarding different modalities, therapy with me is most driven by empathy, direct and honest communication, and intentionality. At the end of each session, I actively seek your feedback on how our time together can be improved or modified to better meet your needs. This open-door policy helps me support the deep, lasting change you wish to make. Therapy is an investment of your time, energy, and resources, so I genuinely strive to earn your trust and achieve the possibilities that you desire.
