My website
Throughout my years of practice, I have worked in hospital, community mental health, and college counseling settings as a diagnostician, group, couples, and individual therapist. And during this time I have developed my specialty working with LGBTQIA & POC communities as well as trauma exposed populations and people struggling with grief, identity development, family rejection, sexual dysfunction, commutation difficulties, and relationship difficulties.
My style is informed by Relational Constructivist and Existential theory. I value the uniqueness of the human experience and strive to co-create a safe, affirming space with clients through building a healthy relationship based upon mutual trust and respect. My goal is to foster your autonomy and empowerment and aid you in using your power meet your goals.
The journey to living as our most authentic selves is a difficult and unique one for each of us. Finding a safe and affirming space to process our experiences and build coping skills to aid us in making our future goals a reality is an important part of that journey. Please schedule a 20 minute consultation to see if I am the right fit for your journey.

I primary use Relational Constructivist theory in my practice. In the first session we focus on how you have moved through your world and what difficulties your would like to spend time on. Then we work together to develop understanding of how you came to make the choices you make, what all the options available going forward are , and what choice you feel is best to make in the future.
