Are you struggling with feelings of sadness or worry? Perhaps you are seeking clarity about your identity, adjusting to a transition, or wish to change behaviors that are not serving you. Sometimes it may feel like you can't improve things on your own. It shows strength and resilience to reach out for help needed. Through personal empowerment we will address the struggles you experience and find sustainable ways for you to achieve a happy and healthy life. Our work together will help you see that the most influential assets lie in your own personal strengths and resilience.
I welcome persons with intersectional identities including disabilities, LGBQIAA+, trans, queer, gender-expansive, neuroatypical, non-white, communities of color and other marginalized identities. I also have expertise counseling partners in non cis-gender/non-heteronormative relationships, multi-partner, and non-traditional relationships.
I am firmly committed to providing a safe, non-judgmental space for all individuals to engage in care. All of my clients are very important to me and all are welcome. I also offer a complimentary 15 minute phone consultation.
