Howdy! Are you looking for a queer, neurodiverse therapist who will be with you every step of the way toward relief from anxiety and depression? Is your goal to thrive, improve self-esteem and build confidence? Do you like to get a little existential? (And do you identify as a huge nerd?) I may be a good fit! The nuts and bolts of it is—as a therapist, I strive to build a strong therapeutic alliance of trust & deep connection, where clients can relax into their most authentic selves. (There are sensory tools and recliner chairs. Come join me!) You can bring your knitting, and I might bring mine, too!
I specialize in grief & loss, and working with neurodiverse LGBTQIA2+ creative adults, who may be recovering people-pleasers/perfectionists. I aim to use the therapeutic tools I have handy to help you to navigate your life's story and take control of it—shaping it to fit who YOU truly are, and build self-confidence. I will meet you where you are at.
P.S. I'm really impressed that you are here, reading this profile, getting the ball rolling in finding the right therapist for you. Taking this step is HARD, okay! I'm here to help. I'd love to learn more about you and see how we can get this therapeutic partnership a-goin'! Whatever your story is, you're welcome in my office!

I aim to use abolitionist, decolonized & anti-racist and anti-oppressive praxis in my work. What this means is-I am dedicated to a practice of humility and justice, and my goal is for all clients to feel seen and heard in session. I often help clients explore identity, sense of self, and sexuality/relationships. Therapy with me is relational, collaborative, and hopefully a little fun, too!
