You may be thoughtful, self-aware, and still feel stuck in anxiety, emotional overwhelm, self-judgment, or relationship patterns that don’t seem to change despite insight. You might be navigating trauma, identity questions, faith transitions, or the impact of religious experiences. You may want relief, clarity, and tools that actually work—without being judged, rushed, or told who to be.
I offer trauma-informed, LGBTQ+ affirming therapy grounded primarily in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). My work focuses on emotion regulation, reducing suffering, and helping clients make values-based changes that are realistic and sustainable. I work collaboratively and tailor therapy to your goals and pace.
Reaching out for therapy can feel vulnerable, especially if past experiences left you misunderstood or dismissed. My goal is to create a respectful, supportive space where you feel safe exploring what’s hard while building skills for real change. If this sounds like a fit, I welcome the opportunity to work together.
