High satisfaction rate with clients

Nice to meet you

I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ identified folx, highly empathic or sensitive individuals (HSPs), and those who are dealing with the impacts of antagonistic or high-conflict individuals. I offer a supportive and affirming space where you can slow down, reconnect with yourself, and find a way forward that f​its your unique circumstances. My work is trauma​-informed, with care rooted in your lived experience, values, and sense of identity. I show up with warmth, compassion, and authenticity as we explore what has been weighing on you. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed or seeking deeper understanding and healing, we can move at your pace toward clarity and greater self-trust.
