You deserve a space that feels safe enough to fall apart and strong enough to build you back up. Life can feel heavy when you’re carrying old wounds, patterns that keep repeating, or the pressure to hold it all together. In our work, you’ll have space to slow down, be real, and unpack what’s weighing on you. My style is collaborative, relational, trauma-informed, and rooted in social justice, as I care about who you are and the world you move through. I integrate ACT, CBT, EMDR, and holistic approaches, but always start with you: your values, your goals, and what you most need right now..
I specialize in trauma therapy, LGBTQIA+ affirming care, and sexuality counseling. My approach blends evidence-based tools like EMDR and CBT with a focus on relationships, meaning, and growth. I’ll challenge you with care, celebrate your progress, and hold space for all the messy, human parts of your story.
Therapy isn’t about “fixing” you, it’s about reconnecting with yourself. I bring warmth, humor, honesty, and compassion, whether online or in person. It’s a privilege to walk beside people as they heal, grow, and step into fuller versions of themselves. If you’re ready for that kind of work, I’d be honored to support you.
