Reignite Your Spark
Online Therapy for Creative Professionals
Clients I work With
Are you tired of battling perfectionism, people-pleasing, and self-doubt?
I help creative professionals feel fulfilled in their personal and professional relationships while giving the middle finger to perfectionism, people-pleasing, and self-doubt.
Many of my clients they feel like an old iPhone that hardly holds a charge with 100 notifications left unread. While their dreams keep them moving, they are scattered and unfulfilled. On the surface, they pretend like they have their shit together, but often there is a deeper wound that hasn't been healed yet. They know something has to change, but relaxing is so hard when their inner critic screams even louder that they need to get shit done.
My clients want to be calm, confident, and true to themselves. They desire deeper relationships and time to actually have fun with friends. They are done with the over-thinking and sick of saying yes when they really meant to yell no. They want to go on vacations guilt free and truly unplug. They are ready to learn new skills to handle difficult emotions, say no to others (and mean it), rediscover their strengths, and reclaim their power.
There’s a reason why you’re here reading this. You deserve to put yourself first without worrying about letting your career, friends, or loved ones down. Work-life harmony isn't a pipe dream, it can be a reality. If you want to stress less and live vibrantly without guilt or fear, I’d love to help you step into your power.

I love working with creative women and gender expansive folks who have silenced themselves to make others comfortable. They are wanting to rediscover their voice, reclaim their power, be true to themselves while caring less about what others think about them.
Through my own EMDR and hypnotherapy, I learned how to calm my inner critic, befriend my body, and balance the blessings and inevitable curses of attention abundance with entrepreneurship. Although your journey to owning and knowing your power may be very different than mine, I’d be honored to be your guide.
If you’re secretly a rebel underneath all that people pleasing, perfectionism, and “good” behavior, you’re my kind of vibe.

My Approach
Therapy doesn't have to suck
Despite the seriousness and depth of our work, I hold the policy that work is serious play. I liberally use humor, creativity, and warmth to create a supportive space for you to learn new skills, re-discover your strengths, and foster resilience to overcome life’s struggles with confidence.
I don't do cookie-cutter therapy, blindly follow a manual, or throw worksheets at you. Instead, I listen deeply to craft an individualized and efficient treatment plan with you for your specific needs and goals. I will follow-up on your progress on goals, intentions, or homework you set in session for accountability. I will also ask for your feedback on a routine basis to make sure you are getting exactly what you want out of therapy.
For hypnotherapy, IFS, or guided meditations in our sessions, I can provide you a professionally recorded MP3 for you to download.
I am LGBTQIA+ affirming, kink-aware, poly and ethical non-monogamy affirming, sex-worker allied, and take an anti-racist and health at every size (HAES) stance in our work together.
