I specialize in working with young adults in their late teens, 20s, and early 30s. Young adulthood is about discovering who you are through major decisions in your relationships, education, and career. It is a critical time when you establish lifelong habits to optimize health and identify passions that drive and define you. I offer individual psychotherapy, art therapy, or a blend of both. As a queer therapist, I enjoy working with LGBTQ+ clients, including individuals who are questioning their sexual orientation or gender assigned at birth. I also offer EMDR for those interested in intensive trauma work.

Do you find yourself overwhelmed or struggling to connect with your emotions? Have you experienced abuse or neglect, or are you facing symptoms of anxiety and depression? I am here to support your emotional well-being and personal growth journey. In my therapy practice, we will work together to address your specific concerns and collaboratively create a tailored plan to help you live the fulfilling life you deserve. I specialize in providing empathetic care to individuals struggling with PTSD resulting from emotional, physical, and sexual trauma, as well as supporting those facing present-day challenges.

In the past thirty years of practice, I've come to deeply understand that all therapy is, in a sense, grief therapy. I began working as a volunteer with Hospice, and although I am trained and practiced in trauma and developmental techniques, I specialize my work with grief and loss. I help my clients walk through the profoundly life-changing territory of losses that can seem impossible to accept and heal from. Because we live in a culture that makes little room for it, I create a place and time for people to unpack their losses and, with time, grow into acceptance. Please let me know if I can help.

I believe we are here to discover, learn, and experience as much as possible in this short journey. As a seasoned and experienced Counselor, I take a holistic (comprehensive) approach in psychotherapy focusing on all parts of a person which includes the emotional, social, biological, environmental, spiritual/philosophical (meaning and purpose), and psychological components that make us whole. And if you are in need of psychiatric medications, I work with a Psychiatrist in the area and you will have access to this service.

I was trained as a generalist and treat a wide variety of presenting concerns, including depression, anxiety, and life transitions. I have specialized in the treatment of trauma-related disorders, sexual functioning, and psychedelic-assisted therapy. In treating trauma, I am trained in several research-based treatments, such as EMDR, CPT, and more. I also provide sex therapy services to address common issues, such as desire discrepancy and sexual shame and can integrate these specialties to address sexuality post-trauma. At this time I can also offer integration services following ketamine treatments or personal use of psychedelics.

You don’t have to suffer alone. Working with an empathetic professional in a collaborative, trusting environment, you can learn ways to move beyond what seem like insurmountable barriers. I’ve helped countless people to overcome their struggles with anxiety and trauma to live more meaningful lives, in ways that they never thought they’d be brave enough to accomplish.

You're here because something about sex or your relationship has been a concern for months or maybe years. You wonder "will it always be this way? Is it possible to feel better?" It's lonely and overwhelming to feel disconnected from your sexuality and your partner. It can cause a rift in your social life, trickle into your work, and your general ability to relax. I'm here to help you discover, heal, and renew erotic pleasure.
