About me
I work with clients of all walks of life. I specialize in empowering women, LGBTQ+ individuals, neurodivergent people, and those recovering from spiritual abuse and religious trauma.
I come to this field with complex life experiences. This drives my passion for leading sessions through a trauma-informed, strength-based, and holistic lens. My theoretical approach is humanistic and integrative. I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Models of care are determined based on clients need. My top priority is to create a safe, compassionate, and judgment-free space for clients of all backgrounds. Sessions with me are laid back. There is space for tears and laughter. My goal is to help clients discover ways to heal and move beyond trauma so they can live more meaningful and authentic lives.
