At the heart of my practice is a commitment to offering affirming and empowerment-based care for the broader LGBTQIA+ community. I also work with allies; If you’ve ever felt like you didn't fit in or belong, you're in the right place. As an LCSW, and from my lived experience as a queer therapist, I pay close attention to how our identities and environments have impacted how we experience ourselves and how we are treated by others. Sometimes exploring your identity becomes an area of deeper focus; Sometimes these identities are simply held present as a piece of your story while we explore other parts of you that need tending to.
I have a relational approach that integrates mind-body modalities such as EMDR, IFS, & Emotion-Focused Therapy. As we process early attachments and trauma, we begin to experience the past with more compassion and a neurological shift occurs in our brains' wiring; This opens up the possibility of changing how we relate to ourselves and others in the present.
If you think we might be a good fit, you can schedule a free phone or video consultation on-line from my website. Click on the button above that says "website" and go to the "Contact" section on the home page. I'm looking forward to connecting with you!

Our work together is based on the mind-body connection and how it relates to our early attachments. We start with a deep dive into your attachment history, discovering the core beliefs that you have about yourself that are keeping you stuck in your patterns. From there, we gently start to investigate and process the distressing memories that cemented these beliefs, using the body as our guide.
