Tired of living a life that feels less than fulfilling? Never been to therapy before and nervous about trying it out? Struggling to navigate your identity after leaving a religious institution or exploring your sexuality? The good news is, you’re not alone! Many of my clients are processing religious trauma, looking for support in their LGBTQ identity, need help coping with attachment-related stressors, or are processing grief. With the most up-to-date evidence based treatments, I believe in supporting you with an individualized, multi-faceted therapeutic approach to help empower you to live in emotional and mental freedom.
I use a Psychodynamic approach to therapy; this means that the healthy therapeutic relationship we establish is a space for healing relational traumas and exploring your identity. Additionally, I use components of narrative therapy, CBT, mindfulness, and attachment-based therapy to help you build skills reflective of your unique strengths and goals.
I believe everyone is deserving of a fulfilling life through mental and emotional freedom. As part of the LGBTQ+ community, I am committed to creating a space that is safe and affirming to help you dismantle the beliefs that have caused you shame, anxiety, guilt, or distress. You deserve to feel empowered and proud of your authentic self. I grew up in the “bible belt” of the South, and I have multiple family members still active in the LDS church; I know first hand how damaging and stifling oppressive systems can be. Therefore, I am also committed to dismantling white supremacy, misogyny, misogynoir, and hetero-normative culture, both in the my therapeutic work and my personal activism.
Taking the first step in finding your freedom through therapy is often intimidating, but I’m excited you’ve taken the first step in coming here today. Let me help you keep your momentum going by connecting with a free, easy, and stress-free consultation call. You deserve to live a life of mental and emotional freedom!
