Are you seeking a compassionate, experienced, and authentic psychologist to join you in your journey towards mental wellness and self-discovery? Are you looking for someone who doesn't fit the stereotypical mold of "psychologist"? Are you seeking a psychologist who is affirming and understanding of what it is like to be queer, polyamorous, kinky, neurodivergent, and/or alternative? When meeting with a new therapist, do you feel as though you spend way too much time educating them rather than on your actual concerns? Well look no further!

Have you reached a tipping point in your life where you know you need to make a change? Sometimes asking for help is the hardest part, and may be the best decision you make.

Are you anxious, stressed and have unhealthy habits to try to relax? Are your relationships triggering for you? If you are suffering from these issues, there is light at the end of the tunnel.

Relationship 101 is captured beautifully by Esther Perel: "The quality of our relationships determines the quality of our lives." If you long to learn how to nourish, strengthen, and/or repair your relationships therapy can facilitate clearer and compassionate communication between you and your loved ones. I'm sex-positive and believe that a relationship is like an intimate dance in which mutual partnership depends on healthy communication, curiosity and vulnerability. If you feel stuck in your relationship, are dating, or taking some much needed time off, therapy can play a supportive role in deepening connection to self and other.

As a clinical therapist, I provide therapy for any and all types of populations and ages and a wide range of diagnosis. For me, providing therapy means that I listen, guide, advocate, and teach skills, without judgment, to help you become stronger and more successful in your life. Once we complete the intake, I schedule a therapy session with you. From there we start our therapeutic process. Depending on your goals, the therapeutic process can vary in length, but every case is individualized to your needs and I always meet you where you are.
