I have seen the powerful effect on people's lives when they begin to unhook from their self-criticism and open themselves up to self-compassion. Often the roots of depression, emotion dysregulation, anxiety, difficulty navigating relationships, and self-judgment are in a history of trauma and chronic invalidation. I help people recognize these roots while also staying mindful in the present. My years as a clinician and my own lived experience as a human have taught me how important validation and finding a space to move through difficult emotions are, particularly when your perception of the world doesn’t match the norm.
Our work together will help you deepen your self-understanding and learn skills to cope better in this world. I encourage my clients to recognize the impact external factors have on mental health, including structural inequity. I am an LGBTQ+ identifying and affirming clinician.
As a therapist and a fellow human, I am here to work alongside you. I see you as the expert on your own life. My style is warm and non-pathologizing. I am here to listen deeply, offer a new perspective, hold a safe space and teach you tools to overcome barriers to living out your values.

Many of my clients have experienced chronic invalidation, a lack of emotional support from their caregivers, or other trauma growing up. I enjoy working with people who are coming into their own LGBTQ identities in a society that is hetero- and cisnormative. I have a special interest in working with partners of transgender folx and bring my own lived experience.
