Waitlist for new clients
My ideal client is someone who is ready to undergo the therapeutic experience. It's not an easy process and I want to support clients through this journey. The journey is a collaborative effort, and clients should be ready to work to become the person they want to be. In life, we go through many trials and tribulations and I strive to create a safe space for my clients to open up about their issues and heal. I think we can work through the struggles of your life together by building a strong therapeutic alliance.

Therapy can be a revelatory process and can bring us back to who we are at our core. I'm a therapist specializing in womanhood– managing stress and burnout; adjustment to motherhood; mid-life challenges including overwhelm and overdoing; and the mature woman navigating mind-body and relationship changes. I have expertise in healing from toxic families and relationships. I'm adept at working toward the realest version of you, leaving behind what no longer works and helping you build strategies for growth. Change is never easy, but it's doable with grace, humor, and the use of real tools that I develop with my clients.

You put on a smile. On the outside you appear happy, successful, and are living a good life. But on the inside you're hurting. You may find yourself struggling with perfectionism, overthinking or a critical inner voice. Depression strikes at times and you don't know why. You are tired of living this way and are ready to make changes in order to enjoy your life. It's time to put down the mask and take some time for self discovery and learn to live your best life.

LGBTQ+ Therapists
Do LGBTQ-affirmative therapists receive special training?
Yes. Many therapists who practice LGBTQ-affirmative therapy have completed specialized training, either during their degree program or as continuing education, to learn the core principles of affirmative therapy and how to best support their LGBTQ clients; some have received certifications in LGBTQ-affirmative therapy. Prospective clients should inquire as to a clinician’s background and training to ensure a good fit.
Why might I want to see an LGBTQ-affirming or LGBTQ-friendly therapist?
Queer and gender-non-conforming individuals frequently experience bias and marginalization in day-to-day life. Working with a therapist who understands these unique challenges, as well as accepts and affirms their identity, can help LGBTQ clients feel safe and supported during therapy—allowing them to better navigate their relationships, mental health, and anything else that they wish to explore during therapy. It is important to note that many therapists can be effective in their work with LGBTQ+ individuals, even in the absence of specific training or background knowledge. The most important component in therapy is the alliance between therapist and client, and this alliance can exist between individuals with very different backgrounds.
How can I find an LGBTQ-friendly therapist?
You may wish to inquire about a therapist’s expertise with your specific challenges or concerns—depression, for example, or relationship strife—as well as their past experiences treating LGBTQ+ clients. Prospective clients may also ask whether a therapist has obtained additional training and/or certification in LGBTQ-affirmative techniques.
How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience with LGBTQ issues?
Prospective clients should feel empowered to directly ask therapists whether they have received training or been certified in LGBTQ-affirming therapy; competent therapists will be happy to explain their educational background and preferred approach(es) to help a client find the best match for them. Clients may also wish to ask how a therapist has treated clients with their particular challenges in the past and what they expect treatment to look like.
Are all the therapists listed in the LGBTQ directory themselves members of the LGBTQ community?
While therapists may choose to disclose their sexual orientation or gender identity in their profiles, the LGBTQ directory features not only those who have shared this information but also those who assert specialized training or experience in providing support to queer individuals, couples or families.
