I help people struggling with issues with relationships, anxiety, mood, grief, trauma, and neurodivergence. I believe healing comes from mutually empowering relationships and connection to one’s identities. As a queer and neurodivergent clinician, I enjoy working with folks exploring their intersecting identities. My approach to therapy is relational and collaborative. In our work together, I will emphasize transparency and authenticity as we bring awareness to the different aspects of your experiences and struggles.
I practice from a relational, emotion-focused, attachment, strengths-based, and psychodynamic lens. I am an Intermediate Level Somatic Experiencing student and am continuing my training toward becoming a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP).
Seeking therapy can be overwhelming, and I commend you for taking these initial steps. Therapy is a place to let go of shame, where all topics can be brought to the table. My goal is to provide a safe space where we can question, cry, laugh, and feel it all together. I consider it the highest honor and privilege to share in your life story and journey.
