My Ideal Client

I am passionate about helping diverse populations with mental health concerns. I value advocacy surrounding social justice issues and bring an understanding of minority experiences, especially regarding LGBTQ+ issues into perspective when discussing mental health.

My Approach to Helping

I believe in treating each person with warmth, dignity and respect, while upholding the professional boundaries of the counseling relationship. I work from a broad theoretical background and approach care with a systemic and non-pathologizing lense. I also aim to empower my clients, and I understand that each individual has their own pace and path in the growth process. I encourage each client to try new approaches to mental health and voice their experiences with what is helpful and what has helped previously.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I hold a degree in Counseling and Guidance from the University of Missouri-Kansas City (2018). Started working with clients in 2016. I have experience in a variety of settings, including inpatient psychiatric hospitals, community mental health, case management, and supported housing. I have learned many skills and resources from working in those environments, and I endeavor to see things through a systemic and non-pathologizing lens.

Specialties

  • Cultural and Systemic Oppression External link

    Many of our mental health problems are directly related to our experience of oppression. I have direct experience with this as a queer person.

  • Personal Growth External link

    I am here to listen to and help you achieve your goals.

  • Adjustment Disorder External link

    Sometimes we have trouble adjusting to the changes that life brings. I’m here to help you sort through your experience of this.

  • Anxiety External link

    We all have anxiety, and at different times, we may feel like it’s overwhelming. I offer support, coping and guidance.

  • Depression External link

    Sometimes we go through times where we are encumbered and feel hopeless. I am here to help you get to the bottom of why this is occurring.
