Focus areas

There are a number of reasons why a person may choose to seek out counseling. Below are a few of my specialties, but whatever you are struggling with feel free to reach out to have a chat about working together.

Self-acceptance

Do you struggle with your sense of self-worth? Do you feel like you need to hide parts of yourself in order to be accepted? Do you have a critical voice inside your head that analyzes everything you do? I help clients explore, with curiosity rather than judgment, the parts that make up who they are. Together we can build a habit of viewing yourself with compassion rather than criticism.

Sexuality + relationships

Do you want to explore your sexual orientation or gender identity? Are you interested in ethical non-monogamy or polyamory? Do you want to expand your relationship to sex and pleasure? Are you a queer person looking for a safe space? I offer a safe and non-judgmental space for gentle and curious exploration. I welcome LGBTQIA+ clients and work from a kink-aware approach to sexuality.

Patterns of behavior

Do you struggle to get what you want out of romantic relationships or friendships? Do you feel stuck in certain cycles of behavior? Do you sometimes feel out of control? Together we can cultivate an awareness of the consistent patterns that play out in your life and relationships, investigate their source, and assess whether they serve you in your current circumstances.

Direction + purpose

Do you have a hard time making decisions? Do you feel like there must be something more? Are you going through a big change or life transition and are not sure where to go next? I help clients (re)connect to their values and (re)discover what makes life meaningful to them, especially in times of change or uncertainty. Let’s seek clarity on what motivates and drives you.
