Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from yourself & others? Maybe you’re burned out, low on health points, & life keeps throwing you side quests when you want to focus on the main storyline? As a queer, neurodivergent counselor, I know how hard it can be to balance the grind of daily life with the bigger picture of who you want to become. Therapy with me is like co-op mode: I’ll bring curiosity, humor, & heart to help you pause, reframe, & find strategies that actually fit your life. Together we'll focus on building skills, rewriting old narratives, & exploring new ways of living your life with intention.
As a scientist, I am fascinated by the small ways our choices & interactions form who we are. Therapy is a space to combine your strengths, passions, & interests with the practice of self-compassion, to experiment with new ways of thinking & feeling. My style is trauma-informed & affirming, with the focus on discovery of what helps you heal, grow, & thrive.
I'm a licensed associate mental health counselor (LMHCA) at Respec Psych. A lifelong nerd & storyteller with a passion for exploring different cultures & perspectives – in life & games. If you want a therapist who values your individual identity, validates your lived experience, and helps you create change, I'd be honored to adventure (& work) with you!
