As a clinician I really focus on how the client can show up and be their authentic self in the world. Often we are taught to “fit in” and put on a performance or mask to get along, please others or to blend in. We don’t have to live like that, living in our own truth invites in more spaciousness, healing, and helps alleviate some of the burdens we have put on ourselves or that we have internalized from outside messages.
People often show up to therapy feeling overly anxious, rigid, exhausted, feeling hurt, dismissed, disconnected, and are sick and tired of feeling that way. My role as a therapist is to help people explore and move through these emotions and the barriers that keep them stuck. Whether its they carry a large mental load in their home life, or they focus on having everything being perfect, or they feel shame about who they are. I aspire to serve those that have held back on advocating for themselves, who’ve struggled to have passion in life, or are discontent with their life because nothing they do ever feels “good enough”.
I’m trained in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing, and have a passion with serving those that struggle with anxiety/perfectionism, eating disorders/body image issues, pregnancy/postpartum concerns, sexual identity and the influence of developmental, social-cultural and familial factors on sexuality.
I’m currently under the supervision of AASECT Certified Sex Therapist Jacqueline Mendez in pursuit to grow my knowledge and capabilities to serve those that are working towards understanding their relationship with their bodies, sexual health, sexual/gender identities, and empowering them to explore safe, empowering and pleasurable intimate relationships.
