Mental Health and Therapy
Individual Therapy
As a therapist, my style is warm, empathetic, and collaborative, creating a safe space for clients to explore their thoughts and feelings. I believe you are the expert on your life, I am just along for the ride.
I prioritize building genuine connections, allowing individuals and couples to feel understood and validated in their experiences. Drawing from a diverse range of therapeutic modalities, I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each client, fostering open communication and encouraging self-discovery.
My aim is to empower you by helping them identify your strengths, navigate challenges, and cultivate healthier relationships with yourself and others.
Through a non-judgmental and supportive environment, I strive to facilitate growth and healing in a way that respects each client’s individuality.
All sessions are online and through a HIPAA-compliant video service or in office.
Couples Therapy.
Sex-positive LGBTQIA and feminist-centered couples therapy and intimacy therapy create a supportive and inclusive environment for individuals and couples of diverse sexual orientations and gender identities. Couples come to me for a variety of reasons, perhaps communication breakdown has taken its toll, maybe trust has been broken, or alternatively, you want to deepen your connection and fall in love again.
Whatever it is, I am here for it.
I use techniques from Gottman therapy, developed by John and Julie Gottman, is a couples therapy approach focused on improving communication, increasing empathy, and resolving conflicts in relationships. It aims to enhance intimacy, respect, and affection while helping couples build a deeper understanding of each other and their shared meaning.
These approaches emphasize inclusivity and celebrate all identities while incorporating equitable principles that promote equality and dismantle traditional gender roles. This type of therapy advocates for open communication and mutual respect within relationships, normalizing diverse sexual experiences and expressions through a sex-positive lens that seeks to reduce shame or stigma around sexual issues.
By adopting a holistic approach, the therapist can address the emotional, relational, and sexual interconnectedness of clients’ lives, fostering empowerment as couples express their needs, desires, and boundaries.
Ultimately, the goal is to help build intimacy, improve communication, and cultivate healthy, fulfilling relationships that honor each partner's unique identities and experiences.
Hope and healing are fundamental human needs that everyone deserves, regardless of their circumstances. In a world often filled with uncertainty and challenges, hope provides a guiding light, inspiring individuals to envision a better future. Healing, both emotional and physical, nurtures resilience and empowers people to overcome setbacks and trauma. Together, these vital elements foster a sense of community and belonging, reminding us that we can all embark on a journey toward self-improvement and a brighter tomorrow.
