If you identify as an artist, creative, visionary, weirdo, or queerdo, then you have found your psychologist!
Many of my clients feel like they live outside the lines — they're sensitive, intuitive, and complex in ways that don’t always fit the world around them. I work with adolescents and adults navigating identity exploration, emotional overwhelm, neurodivergence, creative blocks, relationship challenges, and self-esteem struggles.
My approach is grounded, affirming, and collaborative, offering a space to build clarity, confidence, and a deeper sense of belonging—without asking you to change who you are.
I specialize in working with creatives, LGBTQ+ individuals, and those who have always felt a bit outside the mainstream. I’m deeply prepared to help through both lived experience and rigorous doctoral and postdoctoral training in psychology. As a human, psychologist, and artist, I offer insight, warmth, curiosity, and real understanding.
With a foundation rooted in nearly 20 years of professional expertise and enriched by lived experience, I bring both skill and compassion to this work. I'm here to guide and support you as you move toward clarity, healing, and lasting transformation.

Groups
Cyclical Clarity: A PMDD Support Group
PMDD can feel like living two different lives—one where you feel grounded and capable, and another where a surge of emotional intensity feels overwhelming, isolating, or destabilizing. You don’t have to navigate those cycles alone. Cyclical Clarity is a therapeutic support group designed for individuals seeking understanding, stability, and community as they move through the monthly challenges of PMDD. Together, we explore emotional regulation, relationship patterns, self-compassion, and practical tools for navigating the luteal phase with more support and less shame.
