I believe psychotherapy is life changing but only if you are curious and willing to do the work. Many people start looking for coping skills during stressful times or life transitions, but that’s only the beginning of what it can achieve. If you approach this experience with openness, I will help you unpack your history, identify patterns and make meaningful changes that leave you feeling like you are writing your own story. I have over 15 years experience working with children, adolescents and adults.

Congratulations on taking steps to feel better! Many people struggle with regulating intense emotions, lack impulse control, or use self-harming behaviors to deal with life. Some find themselves in high conflict relationships or have difficulty creating and maintaining boundaries. Even more suffer with negative thoughts, paralyzing procrastination, and excessive rumination that hold them back from living a vibrant life. If these symptoms resonate with you, I hope to support you in overcoming obstacles so you can create a life you love!

Skills focus on developing on more flexibility, openness, and social connectedness, while attending to self-compassion for times of fatalism and fixedness.

Life presents many challenges and struggles and sometimes, it may feel, too little time to voice complex emotions. Yet, an exploration of the nuances of one’s history, relationships, dreams, and desires can help alleviate suffering and increase flexibility in the present moment. Therapy, I believe, can provide this space to become, to play, feel, speak. My integrative approach holds space for family of origin, intergenerational, intersectional and broader social-cultural dynamics.
This is a space to dive deeper into one's experience of non-normative gender in a safe & supportive environment.

We welcome those of transgender, non-binary, & genderqueer identities, or anyone questioning where they fall on the spectrum. Topics discussed may include dysphoria, fluidity, navigating/considering medical transition, relationships, & cultivating joyful self-expression in a culture that enforces a strict gender binary. Together we will support each other in our journeys towards living authentically in our gender and ourselves.

Hi, I'm glad you're here! In my therapeutic practice, I work to support all clients in their exploration and healing around issues of gender identity, sex and sexuality, loss and grief, depression, anxiety, cultivating healthy relationships, and self-acceptance. I specialize in therapeutic work with queer and trans clients. I believe that the most important aspect of therapeutic work is the creation of an affirming and safe relationship between therapist and client. In this way, my approach as a therapist is one that first and foremost is warm, kind, and authentic.
...in which smart, creative, self-aware humans come together to obliterate social game-playing and talk honestly about every aspect of their lives, support each other, challenge each other, help each other, learn from each other, ask each other for feedback, tell each other the truth, find out how they come across to each other, generally help each other grow...and, in so doing, make the relationships in their lives much more rewarding, and their experiences of being people on Planet Earth much more fulfilling.

Please don’t ask me to help you become "normal" (most damaging concept ever, IMO) because you can and should aim higher than that. But please do ask me for help learning about, and becoming, your very own unique self, in all your beautiful, hilarious, infuriating, idiosyncratic glory. As with most big undertakings, this work can be rough going at times. But if you're like most of the folks who come through here -smart, creative, successful, growth-oriented people who have done a lot of personal work already, whether in an official therapeutic context or otherwise- you are, by this point, more than ready to get into the trenches.
This drop-in support group is a place for mothers (and their babies) to meet, share experiences and concerns, break the isolation of new motherhood, discuss the challenges and complex emotions during the transition to the new role of mother, and begin to build a community.

We'll find the practical strategies and the deeper understanding that will help you to shift patterns of behavior and thought, and sort out relationships. Even when conflict and confusion, sadness, anger, fragmentation, loneliness, fear, stuckness (or any other feeling) seems ever-present, we can heal and change.
