Is it possible that overwhelm, grief, rage, shame, etc. are natural responses to living in systems that are often inequitable and unhealthy? If you’re feeling taken over by emotions like these, responding to them with behaviors that aren’t helping, and perhaps feeling trapped in your own life, I would love to work with you. I want to work with people in a way that helps them see that they are inherently good, in spite of layers of social and cultural conditioning that may lead them to feel otherwise.
It is just as true that what you have lived through shapes who you are and how you move through the world as it is that you are always capable of change. But often, the supportive presence of another is needed to help us in this process. I’m happy to be that presence for you. I will be present, open, and real with you, giving you unconditional support so you can feel safe becoming who you really are.
I work with individuals ages 12 and up and have a particular interest in working with those who have a trauma history and with marginalized populations.
