Therapy for Adults

Therapy is a place where we can work together to build upon your strengths in order to help you create a life that is less about surviving and more about thriving. Taking this step is an act of courage and of radical compassion towards yourself.

I enjoy working with Gen-Zers, college students, and Millenials in individual therapy. What a time to be alive and learn how to human, amirite? Life has been a lot lately, and you deserve a place to be heard, validated, and respectfully challenged when beneficial. If you sometimes have a dark sense of humor but wish you didn't need it, we'll get along.

Some challenges I have experience in helping with include:

  • moving from surviving to thriving after a traumatic event or series of traumas, from childhood, adolescence, or adulthood

  • healing after significant loss or grief

  • coping with anxiety or depression stemming from family, friend, relationship, job, or academic stressors

  • engaging in growth-oriented identity work around dismantling oppressive ideologies inside and outside yourself (ableism, fatphobia, homophobia, Islamophobia, racism/white supremacy culture, sexism, transphobia, xenophobia, etc.)

  • processing spiritual and religious experiences that caused tension, confusion, or harm to explore safe and healing practices

  • developing balance and integration between your actions and beliefs

  • untangling complicated nuances of purity culture and developing a healthy sexual ethic

  • ditching shame and adopting a body positive or body neutral relationship with yourself

  • managing impulsive urges or self-destructive behaviors by learning how to experience intense emotions in safer ways

  • shaking off distressing feelings of existential dread, the "Sunday scaries," COVID languish, or "the ick"

I am trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT)*
