Do you feel like your life is a struggle? Maybe you aren’t sure of what’s next and feel stuck in indecision. Are you feeling disconnected in your relationships? Are feelings of guilt or shame getting in the way of reaching out? Whether you’ve been longing for a change for a long time or find yourself in a crisis, I can help. Together, we can explore new possibilities and find relief in knowing you don’t have to carry it all alone.
When you come to therapy with me, there’s no need to worry about judgment, doing it right, or making mistakes. It’s not about fixing you or your relationship; it’s about being welcomed just as you are and feeling safe enough to find your way forward. I am committed to work that is anti-racist and LGBTQI+ and neurodiversity affirming, understanding, and celebrating the unique experiences and perspectives of every individual. I also practice the Health At Every Size® (HAES®) principles, celebrating size diversity in health, and embracing bodies of all sizes.
At As You Are Therapy, you will find a supportive and inclusive environment where your journey towards healing and self-discovery is honored. Contact me today to start your path towards a more fulfilling and authentic life.
I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a Master’s in Counseling Psychology and a Master’s in Education. Before becoming a therapist, I spent ten years as a teacher and raised two children, who are now teenagers. My diverse life experiences, both personal and professional, enrich my approach to therapy and enhance my ability to connect with clients from various backgrounds.
The key to effective therapy lies in the strength of the relationship between client and therapist. I strive to create an environment of trust and safety where you feel comfortable enough to share without fear or shame. It is from this place of safety that meaningful progress towards your goals can be made.
I focus on listening with both my head and heart, offering compassion and understanding in every session. Whether providing thoughtful possibilities for healing paths forward or simply bearing witness to the courage it took for you to ask for help, my aim is to support you in the way you need most.
At As You Are Therapy, I am dedicated to empowering you on your journey towards healing, clarity, and peace, whether in individual, couples, or relationship therapy. Together, we can navigate the challenges you face and work towards a more fulfilling and balanced life.
