I get the honor of creating a safe space where clients work through all the sh*t that leads to anxiety, disconnect and dysfunction.

Licensed Professional Counselor in Anchorage, AK

About My Clients

I tend to work with those who spend their days stressed & struggling to keep their heads above water. I work with the parents who worry about screwing up (or who have realized that their parents screwed them up). I work with folks who feel like they're falling apart from the inside out. You're either stuck in cycles of trauma or carrying the burden of breaking those cycles. It's exhausting and painful. I get it, I'm a cycle breaker. You deserve the chance to take a different path.

My Background and Approach

My background is in relational systems and attachment. I've been in the field for almost 8 years and am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). The majority of my work is relational; humans cannot escape the significant impact of relationships -- how we relate to & are treated by the society we live in, our role within our family, the way we attach & interact with friends / partners -- our lives are a collection of relational experiences; good, bad & neutral. These external experiences inform & influence our internal experience thus dictating how we view & treat ourselves. For most of us, we get stuck in unhealthy / toxic dynamics & we just want a sense of relief & peace. I've lived in Alaska my entire life & love working with parents, teens & adults with emotional/attachment "wounds." My work is collaborative & supportive; I work with clients & hold the optimism that they can learn to radically love themselves & feel rooted in their self-worth.

My Values as a Therapist

My core values are deeply rooted in the desire to dismantle the systems of oppression that have been in place for centuries. BLM isn’t just a sticker you put on your car to virtue signal to others. The lack of competent and affirming care for the LGBQTIA2+ community is harrowing. I know the exhaustion of being in a body that doesn't fit the Western societal “norm.” I continually learn and explore the ways in which the Patriarchy has infiltrated and influenced e v e r y t h i n g. I'm weird in all the best ways; which truly decreases worry that I’m going to be judgmental. I work hard to practice what I teach - in my relationship with myself, in my own marriage, my own parenting, in my friendships, etc. I know what it's like to be in therapy, it's incredibly vulnerable work and so worth it. When we know where we've come from, we can achieve peace about where we want to go. I support and welcome all into my practice including those in "non-traditional" relationships.
