We feel pain in many ways; worry, anger, confusion, and sadness. Our past has taught us how to respond to these feelings. Problems start when what we've learned no longer works to get us relief. Our first goal is to learn why you act and feel the way you do. That awareness is fundamental, but awareness doesn’t bring change, it brings choice. From there I help you move toward choices that get you what you want. I focus on emotions because they communicate something we can’t yet speak. Listening to our emotions gives us the power to help whatever's wrong. See my video on emotions, vimeo.com/392071078 or motivation, vimeo.com/389807247 My approach is appropriate for anyone trying to make changes in their life. Most people come see me because of anxiety, depression, difficulty with motivation, relationship conflict, and life transitions. My areas of expertise are in sexuality, gender identity, and spirituality & faith. I also have significant experience with treating disordered eating. I value meeting everyone where they are. I’ve worked with a wide diversity of individuals. Some of the most profound therapeutic experiences for my clients have been for those who’ve had a life radically different from mine. Our differences matter. And I’m honored to be invited to walk alongside you. If this experience sounds helpful to you, please call.
