I use games, geek culture, and storytelling to help adults and teens build social skills, confidence, and connection. I offer individual and group therapy for those struggling to feel effective in navigating life challenges and in having relationships with themselves and others. I offer therapeutically applied role-playing game (TA-RPG) group therapy which uses Dungeons & Dragons to help those who feel socially anxious, isolated, lonely, or confused about what gets in the way of them building lasting relationships. Individual therapy services are tailored to your clinical, cultural, and geek needs. Offered virtually. Private pay.
I specialize in TA-RPG and interpersonal process group therapy as well as individual assessment and treatment of trauma, including complex PTSD, attachment-based trauma, and moral injury. Cultural sensitivity is at the core of my clinical care and I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, religiously diverse, and military personnel and Veteran clients.
I believe that people are creative, resourceful, and strive to be their best selves. The narrative that we tell ourselves about who we are and our purpose in this world has a profound impact on how we approach and experience our lives. The story of ourselves is something we get to define and I hope to help you unlock your hero’s journey.
