You might be carrying a lot — navigating identity, relationships, family expectations, or simply trying to exist in a world that doesn’t always feel safe for queer folks. Maybe you’re high-functioning on the outside, but inside you feel overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected from yourself.
As a member of the 2SLGBTQ+ community, I offer a space where you don’t have to explain or defend who you are. Together, we’ll slow things down and explore what’s coming up for you — at your pace.

Whether you’re carrying past mistakes, feeling uncertain about the future, or worried about what others might think, I want to work alongside you. Together, we can process the pain and weight of shame, fear, or doubt. Believing in yourself in who you truly are, can sometimes feel like the hardest thing to do. Our past, the judgments of others, or even our own expectations can drown out that belief. These struggles can show up in many ways: depression, anxiety, anger, rehearsing traumatic events, or relationship challenges.

Finding a therapist can feel overwhelming, especially if you’ve spent a long time carrying things on your own or feeling like you had to “push through.” Whether you’re navigating trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, or the lasting impact of past experiences, you don’t have to do it alone. Reaching out for support can bring up uncertainty, self-doubt, or the feeling that “others have it worse.” Many people wonder if what they’ve been through is enough to deserve therapy. I want you to know that if something is affecting you now, it matters.
