I'm a queer and neurodivergent therapist who works with people who long to slow down, feel more at home in their bodies, and build self-trust. Together we explore the deeper needs of your body, mind, and heart—gently uncovering patterns, processing stuck feelings, making meaning of experience, and creating space for more clarity, connection, and aliveness. You want more than just a place to talk—you want tools and support to actually feel better and live differently. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, burnout, grief, trauma, stuckness, or life transitions, we’ll co-create a safe space for meaningful change.
I'm a Gestalt Therapist with 15+ years of experience in mindfulness and somatic work. I offer in-person, virtual, as well as Walk & Talk phone therapy (if you're tired of screens). My approach integrates embodied awareness with insight to help you process, reconnect, and move toward lasting change.
Therapy with me is relational, somatic, and grounded in compassion. If you’re curious whether this approach feels right for you, I invite you to book a free introductory call—together we can explore fit and whether this work will support you.
