Let’s explore what it means to be where we are when we’re there. Through life transitions, education, relationships, and our early careers, we fully experience many of the life adjustments that can shake our world. Narratives around what we “should” do in our 20s can often feel like well intentioned guidance, but often can become internalized as our own anxious internal moderators. As a young adult, your home environment, self-concept, identify, and day to routine might have changed recently and there may be an opportunity for reflection, skill building, and adaptive growth. Life adjustments often highlight narratives we’ve been given, what’s working, and what’s not. Let’s explore what you hope to do differently, and how you can grow towards a life that feels sustainable, empowered, and authentic. If you’re a young adult hoping to explore this time in your life, or hoping to address symptoms of a previously identified mental health experience, Please reach out and we can explore ways of working together to address your current experiencing, better understand self and relationships, and discover informed ways to functionally approach your personal life. Let’s build a foundation for wellbeing and connectedness, strengthened with insights to inform, skills to sustain and adapt, and empowerment to craft the life you want to live.

Working with women through various life experiences including career, relationships, socialization, and other aspects specifically for the challenges women face may include ERP and EMDR modalities as well as an eclectic approach with the therapeutic relationships at the center. My work with women at varying stages of life has informed my practice to better understand and integrate the nuances in cultural and societal expectations, socialization, and account for each unique experience especially as these conditions we exist within overlap and intertwine. I would love to hear your story, explore your hopes for your future, and see how we can work together to leave behind beliefs no longer serving us, anxieties stoking self-doubt, and unhelpful narratives with false meanings. Let’s exist as we are, meet ourselves where we’re at, and discover a path forward from the wisdom in your lived experience. We can build pathways for empowered responses rooted in the meaning you make of life, and hold compassionate respect for the versions of ourselves who did the best they could, as well as excitement and courage to meet the embodied versions of ourselves in the future.

Lets gain insight, take new action, and explore what it means to experience our authentic, genuine, self. Let’s discover ways of continually learning ourselves, our identity, how our connection to others, and our journey through life as we are, as we were, and who we grow into. Let’s identify the experience of life as ourselves, to build approaches in relationships embodying functional, sustainable, adaptable, and fulfilling, experiences.

Our relationships can be shaped by our past, and can be adapted to the kind of relationships we hope to experience in the future. We have relationships with our friends, ourselves, our habits, and our environments. We learn and grow skills to maintain relationships in the best way we know how, and although these skills may have served us at one point, they may be getting in our way of where we want to go in current and future relationships. Our experiences can inform our lives, and deeply impact our self-concept and perception relationally. As a relational therapist I deeply value and hold immense respect for the opportunities in experiential learning and healing the therapeutic relationship provides. When we can utilize this and experience a space as safe, we can create opportunity for new learning and relating to emerge. Whether you’re hoping to discuss a familial relational experience, current relationship challenge, or gain a better understanding of how you exist and experience relationships, I invite you to reach out and connect. Let’s work together to grow awareness, empathetic understanding, active listening, communication, and value based relational skills so that you may create the meaningful relationships you long for in your life.
