Therapy is a space to figure out what’s really going on beneath the surface — and to work toward the changes you want to see in your life. If you’re not totally sure what your goals are yet, that’s okay. We’ll figure that out together.
Here are some of the areas I commonly support people with:
- Anxiety, Overthinking & Self-Doubt
When your mind won’t stop racing, or you constantly question yourself, we’ll work on easing the pressure and finding more calm and clarity. - Healing from Trauma or Difficult Past Experiences
If you’ve lived through things that still affect you, we’ll gently work through the impact so you can feel safer and more grounded in the present. - Being Hard on Yourself
Many of us have a harsh inner critic. We’ll work on turning down the volume of that voice and building a more kind, supportive relationship with yourself. - Shame, Low Self-Esteem, & Feeling “Not Good Enough”
These feelings can run deep. Therapy can help you untangle where they come from — and start building a more accepting and confident sense of self. - Big Emotions That Feel Like Too Much
Whether it’s sadness, anger, fear, or something else, we’ll explore how to understand and manage your emotions in a way that feels more balanced. - Relationship Patterns & Communication Struggles
Maybe you keep ending up in the same kinds of conflicts — or you’re unsure how to ask for what you need. We’ll look at what’s getting in the way and how to create more connection. - Life Transitions, Loss & Change
If you’re facing something big — a breakup, move, career shift, or loss — therapy can be a steady space to process and adjust. - Feeling Disconnected or Unsure of Who You Are
If you’re questioning your identity, struggling with self-worth, or feeling lost, we can explore what matters most to you and help you come home to yourself. - LGBTQ2S+ Identity Support
As a queer therapist, I offer an affirming space to explore gender, sexuality, and identity — whether you’re coming out, questioning, or dealing with related challenges. - Learning to Take Better Care of Yourself
We’ll look at how to build healthier routines, boundaries, and ways of coping — so you can feel more steady and supported in daily life.
A Quick Note
If you’re currently having thoughts of suicide or self-harm, I want you to get the right support. My practice isn’t the best fit for crisis care, but I’d be happy to help connect you with therapists or services who are better equipped to support you.
