The simple fact you are seeking help through therapy is tremendously hopeful. You are half way there! My approach in therapy is to provide a safe, non-judgmental environment to identify what it is you need to create more resolution, meaning and happiness in your life. We will co-create a plan to achieve these broader goals through your daily living, how you relate with others and how you think. Therapy can be a powerful way to transform yourself (and your challenges) into living more fully, and with more in-depth understanding of who you truly are. Email is the best way to reach me. Please note: I no longer accept USFHP.

There are times when life is hard, and we need a safe place to process challenges and rediscover our direction in life. I strive to create a warm, caring space, where a collaborative dialogue can happen.

Our lives are full of change, and that can feel so scary. I love working with people looking to make an impact on their life, big or small. I enjoy working with folks that don’t feel they easily fit in societal constructs. I have experience working with teens to adults using various modalities to address complex trauma, adoption issues, relationships, body image, and parenting. I enjoy supporting folks in exploring gender and sexuality and I'm supportive of all gender expressions, sexual orientations, and family compilations. I am a queer cis woman and parent and strong advocate for queer and trans rights and body autonomy for all.
