You may be grieving the loss of a job, the end of a relationship, or feeling stuck in dating, questioning what you want next, or who you are. Wherever you're at, you’re welcome here. I offer LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy for adults navigating intimacy challenges, identity questions, grief, anxiety, and major life transitions. Together we'll slow down and look closely at your patterns, desires, and attachments to support insight, clarity, and self-trust. My goal is to help you feel more connected, grounded, and confident in yourself so you can make choices and changes that move you toward a life that feels meaningful.
I help adults navigate grief, relationship struggles, and those big “what do I want for my life?” questions. My style is warm, collaborative, and personal, meaning I’m not a wall, rather I offer reflections, questions, challenges, and support as we explore things together, helping you build confidence, self-trust, and find clarity to make change.
If you’re feeling unsure of how to move to move forward in your life, know that you're in the right place. I know therapy can offer space for compassion, understanding, and growth and it can also feel daunting. Keep going. You've already taken that first step by exploring this space. When you’re ready, I’d love to connect and help you find out what's next.
