Welcome! Searching for a therapist, whether for you or your teen, can feel overwhelming. I commend you for taking this step toward changing your relationship with your mental health. You may be a highly sensitive individual looking for new ways to manage the stress of the world, looking for someone who acknowledges your identity and its impact on your mental health, or wanting to find someone who can come alongside your teen as they transition into a new phase of life. Either way, you are open to breaking old patterns, adding new skills, and exploring the meaning you have created from the story you tell yourself about yourself.
I am a collaborative therapist, excited to support you in exploring areas of your life where you would like to increase your skills and self-compassion, living life according to your values—using skills based in cognitive and dialectical behavioral therapy and an approach that is grounded in anti-oppression movements, queer and feminist theory.
Finding a therapist you connect with can be a tedious part of the therapeutic journey. I want to make that process as easy as possible. I look forward to speaking with you and learning how I can support you wherever you are on your journey.

I approach anxiety with curiosity and a strong belief in your capacity to change, while acknowledging the systems and personal history that shape our lives. My work focuses on gradually expanding tolerance for emotions and exploring how anxiety may be limiting your life. Together, we make space to understand protective parts and develop tools to shift anxious patterns and build confidence.

I'm a clinical social worker with a person-centered approach. I use our first sessions to understand your hopes for therapy, your intersecting identities, and the structures impacting your life. I then draw on CBT and DBT skills, informed by somatic therapies like EMDR, to support your growth, healing, and self-exploration in a collaborative space.
