I specialize in working with the queer/LGBTQIA+ community and those struggling with their relationship to food and their bodies. I also work with those dealing with general life stressors, anxiety, depression, and those recovering from high-control groups. I do psychological testing, particularly for autism and ADHD. I believe that knowledge is power when it comes to your mental health, and an accurate diagnosis can be empowering. You do not have to face mental health challenges alone. In our sessions, we can explore your goals and challenges in a supportive, safe, and authentic environment. It is an honor to meet you.
I practice evidence-based interventions, including components of mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (CBT, ACT, and DBT). But before all of that, I am a human in the therapy room and believe in the power of a warm and compassionate therapeutic relationship.
Choosing to begin therapy is a daunting process and I understand that you likely have lots of questions. I'm happy to schedule a brief phone consultation with anyone interested in learning more about my therapy practice. Your story, journey, and emotions are valid. It takes bravery and courage to reach out and seek help. I look forward to meeting you!
