It’s 3am… again and you cannot sleep. Anxiety has taken up space in your mind, keeping you from resting and enjoying your life. Depression is a shackle keeping you from meeting up with friends or even doing the dishes.
You may be hiding your true self, fearing what will happen if you stop hiding, worrying about what could be taken or whether you are truly safe to be who you are.
Finding a space that feels truly safe – now you can breathe. You are able to explore your hopes, fears, and what it means to be authentically you.
“I cannot be there for others unless I am there for myself.”
– Dior Vargas
“Caring for myself is not self-indulgence; instead, it is self-preservation. Self-preservation, in itself, is an act of political welfare.”
– Audre Lorde
“Accept no one’s definition of your life; define yourself.”
– Harvey Fierstein
I will hold space for you and welcome you with open arms. I am part of the community, and I work to understand your challenges from the inside out.
In therapy, I will use my knowledge to help you get to where you need to go. Depending on your needs, I use EMDR/CPT for trauma, narrative therapy to challenge and change the stories you’ve been told about yourself, CBT to challenge automatic negative thinking, and somatic work to reconnect with your body.
We will begin by making you feel welcomed, as I strive to create a space that feels safe for you to be fully yourself – no editing required.
After our initial conversations and you identify your goals, our work will begin. Depending on your needs, we will work through trauma, identity, relationships, and the particular challenges you face.
As a result of our time together, you will gain a sense of pride in yourself, greater resilience, and the tools to navigate a world that does not always make room for you.
Clients who have worked with me say they feel safe talking about who they are – perhaps for the first time.
As we identify your specific needs, whether it’s trauma therapy, emotional resilience, or communication and relationship support, we will create a personalized plan that honors where you are and where you want to go.
I am on your side and ready to take this journey with you. Contact me today to learn more.
