My practice is dedicated to fostering healing through warm, relational therapy. I welcome clients from all backgrounds and walks of life, with special focus on members of the LGBTQIA+ community, those in trauma recovery, and those navigating disability or neurodiversity. I work to create a therapeutic space that fosters trust and human connection. Within this space we can engage in compassionate exploration of lifelong patterns of belief and behaviors, the impacts of trauma and stigma, relationship and intimacy concerns, identity intersections, life transitions, and issues stemming from aging, disability, and/or chronic pain.

Many of my clients are trauma survivors, often also navigating stigma and marginalization. The first step involves creating a space of profound safety in which you feel able to bring your whole self into therapy, knowing you will be seen and accepted. This enables us to explore more deeply without harm. A secure therapy relationship serves as the basis of lasting change and post-traumatic growth.

I work from an integrative perspective, shaping each therapy to the individual. Treatment is grounded in contemporary relational psychodynamic therapy, through which we build trust and safety, working to uncover lifelong patterns with a focus on how they impact you today and how to break free of those that no longer serve. I bring in art, play, humor, and other specific approaches as appropriate.
