Have you ever wondered if therapy could help you explore your personal identity or better understand your relationships in life? As a queer and nonbinary individual living in Pittsburgh, I know firsthand how transformative counseling can be in embracing one’s diverse identity and understanding the hardships of life. I am passionate about working with people who are navigating their unique journeys and expression.
I firmly believe in creating a therapeutic environment that is both nurturing and secure, helping people to work toward positive change. My therapeutic approach is rooted in the belief that you are inherently enough, just as you are. In our sessions, you can expect a space of comfort, exploration, and compassionate, trauma-informed care.
