There are times in life when the work of being a person in the world can feel utterly unmanageable, if not downright impossible. Therapy should be a place of respite and recovery from these challenges - it is here that we can slow down, process, laugh, cry, heal, and grow. Everyone deserves a therapeutic space where you can be seen in the way you want to be seen, and heard in the way you want to be heard. In my work, I seek to create a collaborative space based on values of affirmation, trust, and compassion, in which we can explore and address the adversity that prevents you from leading the life you want to lead.
My practice draws from relational, psychodynamic, and feminist modalities to create a holistic approach best suited to your needs. I specialize in working with people who identify as queer, trans, and gender-expansive, but welcome all with a curiosity for cultivating self-knowledge and insight.
Finding a therapist - and dealing with mental health challenges in general - can feel extraordinarily difficult at times, but know that you are deserving of support and care. Please reach out to schedule a free 15 minute consultation - I would love to see if we might be a good fit. Take care, and thank you again for being here.
