Psychotherapy Focus Areas

 We often think of trauma as being a big event, such as a war or natural disaster, but trauma can be more chronic and complex in nature, such as having had an emotional immature or narcissistic parent, growing up in a chaotic or unstable household, or being betrayed by someone you love.

​

I provide trauma-informed and sensitive care to support clients through navigating trauma, including complex trauma (c-PTSD), childhood trauma, intergenerational trauma, racial trauma, betrayal trauma, and relationship trauma.

Connection and healthy relationships are key components to mental wellbeing. I support clients through exploring attachment and working towards a more health attachment style. I also have a special interest in working with those looking for support with relationship anxiety.

Anxiety is a part of life but it does not have to run your life. Together we work towards finding healthy ways to cope with anxiety.

I also support clients looking for support with perfectionism.

I create a safe place to explore the complexities of body image and our relationship with food. Together, we work towards creating a sense of peace within our bodies and a  a sense of peace around food.

Healing is not loving only the best parts of you. That’s easy. Healing is showing yourself compassion, even through the worst of times and validating your own humanness. I empower clients to show themselves the same compassion they often show others. Together we turn a harsh inner voice into a gentler and kinder one. 

As a BIPOC therapist, I have a special interest in supporting those looking for culturally-focused care including those navigating being a child of immigrants, those in inter-racial relationships, those who identify as bi-cultural or bi-racial, and those looking to explore their cultural identity.
