You’re often the one others rely on. You hold things together, push through challenges, and keep moving forward. But when it comes to your relationships, sexuality, or the changes life throws your way, things can feel much messier than they look from the outside. I work with individuals and couples navigating intimacy, desire, relationship challenges, and identity exploration. Many of my clients are also carrying the weight of trauma, chronic illness, grief, caregiving, or major life transitions. Some are exploring non-monogamy or kink, while others simply want to feel more connected—to themselves, their partners, and their bodies.

You are good at your job. You hold yourself to a high standard. You are excellent at managing other people's problems. Perhaps everything is still working, at least on paper, but something seems off. Maybe it's your relationship, or how you feel about your work, or a distance has grown between you and the people you care about. It feels like you have been managing it mostly alone, and you are starting to wonder how long that is sustainable. I work with individuals and couples who are under real pressure and are ready to think carefully about what is not working and why.

I believe therapy can be an empowering safe space that can provide you growth, healing, self-awareness and self-discovery.

I believe my position, as a therapist, is to partner with my clients in a safe environment that will allow resources to be uncovered and new choices to be discovered. These tools will equip them to find desired changes and/or fight their problems. Life experiences can limit what is available and by processing these experiences people can find understanding, healing and/or the ability to move on and thrive. I work with individuals, couples and families, and have a specialization in working with preteens/teens as well as persons with terminal illnesses. I offer a free phone consultation.

You’ve survived deep wounds: abuse that has shaped how you see yourself, your relationships, and the world. Maybe you struggle with overwhelming emotions, dissociation, panic, or feeling disconnected from your body and identity. You might find yourself in unhealthy relationships, battling self-doubt, or feeling like healing is out of reach. But trauma does not define you. I specialize in supporting survivors of sexual, physical, & emotional abuse reclaim their sense of self using EMDR, IFS, Somatic Experiencing, and a relational, psychodynamic approach. With nearly a decade of experience, I'm here to affirm that healing is possible.

I was inspired to become a therapist because I feel we are living in an age that devalues deep listening and I decided I wanted to invest my life and my soul in creating safe spaces wherein people feel heard and held. I wanted to dedicate my life to helping others feel validated, understood, and truly empowered in their journey toward self-discovery. I think it’s important to give people the space and patience to gradually sift through their thoughts and emotions in order to better understand the core reasons why they want to change.

You don’t have to have everything figured out to start therapy.
I work with college students, teenagers (16+), and young adults who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure about their next steps in life. If you’ve been overthinking decisions, questioning your direction, or feeling like you “should have it figured out” by now—you’re not alone.
Many of my clients come in feeling indecisive, lost, or navigating major life changes. They often say things like, “I don’t know what I’m doing with my life,” or “I just need someone to talk to.” These experiences can feel frustrating and isolating, especially when it seems like everyone

Do you feel like you are at a crossroads and wondering "where do I go from here?" It can be daunting to explore the places that scare you but deciding to do so is often the road to liberation. I work with individuals and couples who are stuck and looking for a way forward. Relationships, both with ourselves and with others, can be complex and we often become complacent and used to "the way things are." So, when "the way things are" isn't working anymore, I am here to help. I proudly work with folks from all walks of life, but it is worth noting, I have specialized knowledge of the entertainment industry.

Specializing in relational therapy allows me to directly connect with my clients about what is causing internal stress and discomfort. My practice mainly focuses on queer, neurodivergent, chronically ill/disabled, and non-monogamous folks (not always intersecting, but some!).
I see therapy as a space to explore identities, fantasies, the universal grief we experience as humans, and most importantly, connection. Whether that be connection between client and counselor, or with partners-animals-nature-the world at large, I'm grateful to be a part of it in facilitating and supporting.

Life can be complicated, and it’s easy to feel lost, stuck, or unsure of what comes next.

We all have ideals-- how we think we should feel, how we feel we should think, how we want others to behave towards us, how we want our life to unfold. When reality doesn’t match our ideals, it can bring confusion, frustration, even despair. We may feel trapped between our ideals and reality, leading us to believe we are spinning in circles. I see the therapeutic process as one that allows for an exploration of these ideals and an opportunity to understand how they play a role in one’s relationship with self and with others. My hope is that, through this process, you will find a deeper clarity of your values, wants, and needs.

My clients are people who have spent most of their lives being strong for everyone else. They're the ones who figured out early how to navigate systems, meet expectations, and carry more than their share, often without anyone noticing the weight. Maybe they're first-generation, bicultural, or caught between the world they came from and the one they're building. Maybe they've experienced trauma, loss, or a life transition that quietly unraveled something inside them. On the outside, things look fine. On the inside, they're exhausted, disconnected, or wondering why they still don't feel like enough.
