A wise Jedi Master once said, “Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.” - Yoda. I think Yoda’s right, folks. If we let fear dictate our decisions, then our capacity and experience will be limited. That’s why it's so important for me to help you feel as comfortable as you can in front of a stranger for the first time, so we can keep you away from the dark side (I hope I have a large Star Wars audience here). I believe a good chunk of our issues come from two main places: 1. Unconscious habits within the mind, and 2. Avoiding the right kind of suffering. If you work with me, you can expect a lot of work around self-awareness, learning ways to embrace pain (cool cool cool, I know), and what it means to live more intentionally. I'm a laidback LGBTQIA+, trauma informed, liberal, and sometimes dorky therapist. I work best with people who are willing to take an honest dive inward and get a little weird.
