Thanks for clicking! Mental health is an important part of general wellness. It’s not about being a burden, weak, or needy. It’s about growth, skill building, and entering a safe place to uniquely express and challenge yourself. I’m here to help that process. Among other important parts of my identity, I am neurodiverse, Queer, and biracial. My approach to therapy is collaborative, often feeling less structured or less therapist-led than traditional therapy approaches. I believe this allows more space for a person to bring their whole self, finding an experience that caters to the individual person not an ideal or textbook client.

You don’t have to navigate this alone. Life can be overwhelming, and sometimes we lose our sense of direction. As a mental health counselor, my approach is guided by your unique needs, but at the core, I focus on strengths and values, helping you reconnect with what truly matters to you.

When you feel unsure, stressed or simply not like yourself, any decision can feel overwhelming and challenging to navigate. This uncertainty combined with symptoms of depression, anxiety, or trauma can lead to feeling paralyzed. Starting therapy can be a supportive and gentle antidote to this paralysis and fear.

I practice from a strengths based, trauma informed perspective and believe a strong therapeutic relationship is of utmost importance.

Secular and Non-Religious Therapists
What is a secular and non religious approach in therapy?
Secular or non-religious therapy is a theoretical orientation used by many therapists and describes a therapeutic approach that does not rely on any specific religious or faith-based beliefs in the therapeutic process. Secular counselors will often approach therapy with an emphasis on evidence-based practices, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients, instead of relying on religious practices, such as prayer or belief in God.
Is secular therapy primarily for non-religious people?
Both religious and non-religious individuals can benefit from secular therapy. People exploring their religious or spiritual beliefs may find it especially useful to work with a secular therapist who is unbiased toward any specific religion. While religious individuals might value the connection and familiarity of seeing a counselor who shares their beliefs, secular counseling can offer them the chance to develop coping skills independent of their religious practice, which can be beneficial in various aspects of their lives.
Can a secular approach to therapy help with religious trauma?
One major reason clients may seek a secular therapist is to process previous religious experiences, including religious trauma. Secular therapists can help clients manage symptoms of the trauma through practices such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy or Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). They can also encourage clients through talk therapy or psychodynamic approaches to explore the roots of their religious trauma. Since secular therapists do not have any predetermined religious beliefs, they can be particularly helpful for clients looking to explore their own religious beliefs following a history of religious trauma.
What does non religious marriage and premarital counseling involve?
Marriage and premarital counseling typically involves a couple meeting with a therapist to discuss topics such as planning for marriage, navigating a new marriage, addressing relationship challenges, and developing better communication and conflict resolution skills. Non-religious therapists assist couples in achieving these goals without adhering to specific religious beliefs or frameworks, often emphasizing inclusivity and non-judgment, especially for "nontraditional" couples. However, seeking couples therapy from a non-religious counselor does not mean religious topics are off-limits. In fact, non-religious couples from different religious backgrounds may benefit from a secular therapist who remains neutral toward the beliefs of each partner.
