Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
My experience working with LGBTQ people and clients of various backgrounds in mental health settings has shown me that personal change occurs best through relationships based on trust, and a common purpose. Relationships where you are encouraged to say what’s on your mind, be challenged, take risks, and gain new insights. In our sessions, I will focus on honoring your autonomy as we work towards your goals for therapy. My intention is not to teach you a “correct way to live" but instead to learn what already works for you and help create a space to explore yourself further leading to new possibilities for your life. My work is informed by psychodynamic, relational, and trauma-focused modalities, with a focus on anxiety & depression, complex trauma, dissociation, relationships, sex, sexuality, gender, and substance use. In session, I listen attentively while encouraging you to dive deeper into what emotions, thoughts, and past experiences underlie. Finding a good therapeutic fit can be a tiresome, confusing, and honestly annoying process. There are endless profiles to scroll through with similar language and buzzwords. I tailor my approach to each and every client or couple/relshonship, and am available to answer any questions, or meet for a consult.
