I Work With

People Grieving

Grief is a natural process and is not something we are taught how to do. It can occur when there is a death, but also during a big life change. Sometimes an event can create a sense of absence in your relationships, even though everyone is still physically present. Acknowledging loss that occurs during any transition is a core part of my work and I make room for clients to feel and process what can often be silenced and disenfranchised.

People Pleasers

It’s so easy to see what other people need and take care of them and then turn around and feel resentful that no one sees your needs. Or perhaps you often wish you knew how to handle conflict or stand up to someone. I often work with people who second guess themselves and self-identify as people pleasers.

Intimacy Struggles

How is it for you to be vulnerable with other people? It’s hard to trust that others are going to show up for you or that you are worthy of their love and attention. Perhaps you have minimized your needs and created an almost compulsive self-reliance, which makes it hard to receive affection and experience pleasure. This can often impact your partnerships and your sexual life. I work with people to explore dynamics in their past relationships, their own sexual desires, and needs in a safe space to work towards more authenticity and self-assertion.

Young Adults

The journey of self-discovery and intentionally shaping the person you want to be is a lifelong adventure. I find joy in working with individuals who are in this transformative phase, helping them uncover the empowering aspects of their identity and the path to becoming the person they aspire to be.

Creative Types

Creative types, more than most, experience uncertainty about the future, as well as professional (and personal) ups and downs. I enjoy helping creative types realize their resiliency and tap into a sense of internal stability and security, even amid massive change.

Career Transitioners

Whether you are between jobs, looking to understand your long-term career plans, or hoping to understand what a career means to you, I can help you discover your values and how to get where you want to go. I work by using different career assessments, exploring with you how you present in interviews, and working with you to discover more of your purpose and how that can be integrated into your career goals.
