Relationships are hard and the struggles we experience can be complex. We don’t always understand or have the words to explain what's going on in our lives- but we know we aren't feeling how we want to. The traditional approach to therapy can be intimidating and at times, hard to understand. In my sessions, we will build our relationship with humor & compassion. I believe that everyone's struggles are unique. I'm here to help guide you to discover the best ways to heal in your situation. I am passionate in helping couples, families, and individuals heal through reframing and normalizing your conflicts while creating new experiences.
My background helps me take a holistic stance so we can identify what is impacting your struggles and work together to find the solutions. My training in systemic multicultural therapy allows me create a healthy and inclusive therapeutic space where we can address the injustices and social norms that make therapy and life difficult. I offer a brave space.
I show up authentically to sessions as a queer, neurodivergent therapist. I am an AAMFT Approved Supervisor Candidate and am currently accepting new LMFTA supervises in NC. I am licensed in North Carolina and Georgia. If you're here & feeling drawn to reach out, I look forward to hearing from you and being a part of your healing. Take care of yourself.

I am a queer, nonbinary, neurodivergent, poly therapist, and show up authentically in each session. I am a chronic childhood abuse and neglect survivor. I work with many clients who are coming to realize they may align with these identities and want a space to process this. I enjoy supporting clients through identity exploration and processing how these identities impact their daily lives.
