About
As a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I will help you identify the root concerns that brought you to therapy. I'll provide a safe space to connect with and vocalize the emotions needed to clarify what it is you want for yourself. Using a narrative approach, we will explore the impact of family relationships, upbringing, and trauma on your sense of self. Together, we will process the techniques (good and bad) being used in attempt to try and control the thoughts and feelings inside such as; anxiety, depression, people-pleasing, perfectionism, and/or substance abuse. I'll personalize therapy to assist you in building coping skills as well as working through barriers to increase communication and self-worth. Together, we will identify your strengths and practice challenging unhealthy automatic thoughts to find understanding and empowerment. My hope is that you'll create change within using the awareness and acceptance you'll gain. There is nothing wrong with giving yourself permission to put your needs first. I am an ally to the LGBTQ2S+ community and sex positive.
