PERSONAL STATEMENT
Do you ever feel like daily life is a struggle, or that navigating big changes seems impossible? Maybe you’ve been carrying the weight of trauma, complex emotions, and experiences that leave you feeling misunderstood—like no one truly gets how your mind works, or worse, you don’t even fully understand it yourself. If you’ve faced discrimination or battled with self-harm, suicidal thoughts, or dissociation, it can be hard to find a therapist who truly gets it. But the good news is that you don’t have to do this alone. If you’re looking for someone who pairs direct, open, and honest communication with a touch of humor, you’re in the right place. I want to help you navigate the complexities of your mind in a way that makes sense, feels safe, and honors your unique journey.
If trauma has deeply impacted your life—whether it’s PTSD, C-PTSD, or a struggle with emotional regulation, self-worth, or trust—I’m here to help. With experience in rape crisis centers, substance use treatment, and psychiatric care, I use an eclectic approach, blending EMDR with techniques like mindfulness, prolonged exposure, narrative therapy, and existentialism. Whether you’re facing flashbacks, nightmares, or rebuilding your identity, we’ll work together to process your trauma and guide you toward healing and growth. You don’t have to navigate this alone.
If you’re ready to take the next step in your healing journey, I’m here to support you every step of the way. Together, we’ll create a safe, compassionate space to work through the challenges you're facing, at your pace. Don’t wait any longer to start feeling understood, empowered, and equipped to move forward. Reach out today, and let’s begin the process of healing, growth, and transformation. You deserve it.
