My Counseling Approach

You deserve a space where you feel seen, heard, and respected. My approach focuses on your unique needs and lived experiences. I combine professional expertise with a nonjudgmental environment to help you heal.

​

Holistic and Personalized Care

Your mental health involves your whole self. I do not use a one-size-fits-all model. I tailor every treatment plan to your specific goals, lifestyle, and history. We work as partners to identify your strengths and navigate your challenges.

​

Inclusive and Affirming Environment

I provide specialized support for individuals in alternative lifestyles. You will find a safe and affirming space here if you identify with any of the following:

• LGBTQ+ communities

• Polyamory and ethical non-monogamy

• Kink and BDSM communities

Your identity is respected. You can explore your relationships and personal growth without fear of judgment.

​

Evidence-Based Techniques

I use proven methods to help you achieve sustainable change. My background as an educator and community mental health provider informs my practice. I specialize in the following therapies:

• EMDR: To process and heal from past trauma.

• DBT: To build emotional regulation and mindfulness.

• TF-CBT: To address the impact of traumatic events on your life.

​

Collaborative Growth

Our sessions focus on your empowerment. We will celebrate your achievements and adjust our plan as you grow. You will gain practical tools to manage anxiety, depression, or PTSD and build long-term resilience.
