I work with teens and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, eating and body image concerns, chronic illness, chronic pain, exploring matters related to race, ethnicity, culture, sexuality, gender and neurodivergence, and who are facing family of origin concerns such as intergenerational trauma, estrangement or disownment. My passion and experiences are rooted in working with LGBTQIA2s+, BIPOC, creatives, neurodivergent people, and people living in marginalized bodies. Our work together will seek to unearth and honor your strengths, what you value, and who you want to be in this life.
I practice from the perspective of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). I incorporate DBT, exposure, somatic, psychedelic preparation/integration, and gender and neurodivergent-affirming approaches in my practice. I provide comprehensive ADHD & Autism evaluations and assessments needed to obtain letters for gender affirming care.
Presence, trust, and connection are the basic ingredients for any supportive relationship. Wherever you are in life, I promise to meet you from a place of non-judgement, humility and an easygoing curiosity. I offer free 15 min phone consultations to discuss what our work might look like together. Please call or email me to schedule.

My approach is trauma-informed, neurodiversity-affirming, and LGBTQ allied. I center safety, self-understanding, and body trust over symptom control. I view eating and identity struggles as adaptive responses to invalidation and trauma. Therapy becomes a space to unlearn shame, honor difference, and reclaim agency with honesty, compassion, and curiosity.
