Living better. Feeling Better.
Maybe you’re used to feeling bad. It’s been so long now, it’s hard to imagine any other way. Bad habits, discouraging thoughts on repeat, waking up feeling blah and spending your days disconnected. You notice your relationships becoming more and more dysfunctional, especially your relationship to your self. Maybe these thoughts frequently run through your mind “I’m bad, it’s all my fault, what’s wrong with me?”
Do you even like yourself anymore?
Better question: Do you know who you are? Have you ever given yourself a chance to really know?
I have a feeling this is someone we’d all love to meet.
Put your healing in your own hands.
I’m a licensed clinical social worker with postgraduate training in modern psychoanalysis, hypnotherapy, and EFT tapping.
I specialize in somatic nervous system healing, which is a non-judgmental approach to understanding why we react the way we do and how our triggers are based in our physiology and our past wounds. I love this approach to understanding ourselves because it’s so hopeful, it doesn’t pathologize, and it puts our healing powers literally in our hands.
I tailor each session to meet your unique needs and rely on the art and magic of the therapeutic relationship to guide the healing process.
Specialty Areas
Relationship Patterns
Through the lens of attachment and trauma theory, we’ll uncover why you choose the partners you choose, why familiarity can keep you stuck and unsatisfied, and how being mindful of your patterns can move you toward the security you crave.
Coming out in Adulthood
There is no right or wrong time to come out. There is no deadline on discovering a new part of yourself or being ready to share that with someone else. Folks who come out later in life are met with their own unique challenges. The excitement and liberation of coming into this new part of yourself (or letting yourself finally express a part that has always been there) can often be overshadowed by feelings of inadequacy, loneliness, loss, and confusion. You may feel that friends who came out as young people are way ahead of the curve or that your straight friends can’t understand what you’re going through. Perhaps you have a partner or children and are afraid of how this may impact your family. I’m here to offer support, connection, and celebration as you move through this gorgeous time.
Ethical non-monogamy
Here is a unique space where we can feel both held and free. A beautiful form of being in relationship that can, of course, bring up ALL the feelings. Where our attachment insecurities can be put to the ultimate test and also where we can know greater love than we ever thought possible. It is a spacious love that many of us are not used to. And even as we become accustomed to it, we constantly navigate communication and logistics and safe sex with our partners. Let’s talk about it all. That’s what we do here.
