I may not be the therapist for you if you want someone to nod blankly while scribbling on a pad (no T no shade!). I specialize in working with queer, gender-expansive kids and adults, and folx with ADHD (which I have too). My active, playful, engaging style helps neurodivergent and LGTBQIA+ folx feel truly seen and supported. I come with curiosity, humility, and no assumptions, showing up unapologetically — weird shirts, bowties, and fresh fades, (lol!) — because connection and authenticity are key to healing. I offer support for eating disorders, substance abuse, trauma, anxiety, depression, chronic illness and more.
I love working with originals, outsiders, misfits and weirdos. I work with the whole person — mind, body, and emotions — exploring how experiences, identity, and societal pressures shape your thoughts and feelings. Together we reclaim agency, regulate emotions, and build clarity, insight, resilience, and liberation in your life.
I know how exhausting it can be to navigate therapy spaces that don’t understand you. My practice is built for you—a place where your story is honored, your strengths are celebrated, and your challenges are met with care and understanding. You don’t have to do this alone. Let’s work together to create a life that feels meaningful and true to you
