I had a hard time finding a therapist that thought like me when I was a younger.
As a member of the LGBT+ community, it is important to me that my clients know I hear the ways that the world is not built for them. Our work in therapy is to find ways to get your needs met in an often unaccommodating or misunderstanding world.
I recognize the power of your experiences and how relationships (healthy & unhealthy) can define your perspective on yourself and others. Building a trusting rapport with you as your therapist is my top priority. Together we can make sense of what happened, your reactions, and how to reclaim a sense of self, safety, and belonging in the world by your own definition.
I am a pre-licensed clinician based out of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania under supervision of multiple licensed clinicians.
Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based somatic therapy that helps you reprocess painful memories and experiences. EMDR regulates the nervous system and reshapes brain patterns so that what was previously triggering can be confronted without emotional spiraling. EMDR is helpful for trauma, anxiety, depression, and more. It can help balance your mood and make you feel much more at peace, as well as improve communication, boundaries, and relationships.
