“To be healed, we must engage the wound.” – Bell Hooks.
I’m a bilingual therapist (English/ASL) who works with individuals, couples, & families navigating anxiety, burnout, trauma, and relationship patterns that often begin when emotional needs are unmet, ignored, or misunderstood. My approach is grounded in the belief that our bodies carry the stories of our culture, relationships, and lived experiences. In therapy, we’ll slow down together, whether that’s exploring what’s been protecting you, uncovering old cycles between partners, or shifting family dynamics, & gently create new ways of relating to yourself & to those you love.

We are experiencing times where our identities, whether, personal, relational, racial, or even sexual are called into question and challenges our very way of being. Whether its work, family, or peer-related our stress can sometimes feel debilitating and we feel like we are on the cusp of giving up. In a world that lacks cultural-sensitivity and the ideal is to be self-reliant and independent, sometimes it’s difficult to acknowledge that we are in fact social beings that need help, especially when we are being impacted mental, physically, and emotionally…three aspects of the human experience that society says we need to be intact to thrive.

I earned a Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University, with my journey of support for the trans and non-binary communities including the Colors LGBTQ Youth Counseling Center, Pride Recovery LA, and Westwind Recovery.
We are all taught that gender is binary. But did you know that isn't true? We know now that gender is fluid, a spectrum that encompasses a wide range of identities from gender non-conforming, to agender, and genderqueer. Individuals within the trans and non-binary community often grapple with a fear of embracing their authentic selves, while contending with societal & familial pressures. However, concealing our trans and non-binary identities is unsustainable. I believe that everyone exploring their gender identity deserves a safe, empathetic space to navigate their own internalized transphobia, because trans is beautiful!

As a non-binary queer therapist, I value creating an affirming space for all gender identities and expressions.
21st-century life is wild. Just existing in our complex, relentlessly changing world can be an overwhelming, isolating challenge. I work with adults navigating relationship challenges, trauma, depression, shame, grief, and the often complicated existential concerns of identity, meaning, and loss. Therapy research overwhelming suggests the relationship with your therapist (AKA "therapeutic alliance") is one of the most consistently supported predictors of therapy outcome. My style in therapy is warm, compassionate, and real (tattoos, some cursing, love for pets, humor when appropriate). I show up as my full self and you can too.

LGBTQ+ Therapists
Do LGBTQ-affirmative therapists receive special training?
Yes. Many therapists who practice LGBTQ-affirmative therapy have completed specialized training, either during their degree program or as continuing education, to learn the core principles of affirmative therapy and how to best support their LGBTQ clients; some have received certifications in LGBTQ-affirmative therapy. Prospective clients should inquire as to a clinician’s background and training to ensure a good fit.
Why might I want to see an LGBTQ-affirming or LGBTQ-friendly therapist?
Queer and gender-non-conforming individuals frequently experience bias and marginalization in day-to-day life. Working with a therapist who understands these unique challenges, as well as accepts and affirms their identity, can help LGBTQ clients feel safe and supported during therapy—allowing them to better navigate their relationships, mental health, and anything else that they wish to explore during therapy. It is important to note that many therapists can be effective in their work with LGBTQ+ individuals, even in the absence of specific training or background knowledge. The most important component in therapy is the alliance between therapist and client, and this alliance can exist between individuals with very different backgrounds.
How can I find an LGBTQ-friendly therapist?
You may wish to inquire about a therapist’s expertise with your specific challenges or concerns—depression, for example, or relationship strife—as well as their past experiences treating LGBTQ+ clients. Prospective clients may also ask whether a therapist has obtained additional training and/or certification in LGBTQ-affirmative techniques.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience with LGBTQ issues?
Prospective clients should feel empowered to directly ask therapists whether they have received training or been certified in LGBTQ-affirming therapy; competent therapists will be happy to explain their educational background and preferred approach(es) to help a client find the best match for them. Clients may also wish to ask how a therapist has treated clients with their particular challenges in the past and what they expect treatment to look like.
Are all the therapists listed in the LGBTQ directory themselves members of the LGBTQ community?
While therapists may choose to disclose their sexual orientation or gender identity in their profiles, the LGBTQ directory features not only those who have shared this information but also those who assert specialized training or experience in providing support to queer individuals, couples or families.
