My Ideal Client

Emotional and relational pain can’t be easily categorized with words like anxiety and depression. Each of us have our own stories and our pain is as unique as we are. Whether it is learning to carry the existing burden of a mental health diagnosis or exploring the sources of pain and worry, what helps more than labels is the ability to tell our stories in a way that is as hopeful as it is truthful. I provide a space where you can be seen and understood so that we can address what hurts together.

My Approach to Helping

I view the counseling relationship as a kind of partnership where the client brings what they can of their authentic presence while the therapist brings the empathy, skilled observation and non-judgmental understanding needed to draw out the inner strength and wisdom of the client. Seeking help is an emotional risk. My desire is to honor your courage and create a safe environment for you, in all your uniqueness, to be seen and understood so that together we can face your problems and discover how life might become more manageable.

Social Justice Issues We Care About

As the child of immigrants, raised in a rural setting, I also maintain a passion for racial justice and identify with minority experiences. Having suffered with both depression and anxiety, weathering spiritually abusive environments and attending to the severe mental suffering of friends and family, I know both the pain and hope involved in healing from psychological and spiritual wounds. If you’re struggling, please reach out and book a free consultation or make an appointment. You’re not alone.
