Available to see new clients! I'm a queer-identified therapist specializing in affirming, compassionate therapy for adults and adolescents in New York, with a focus on LGBTQIA+ and transgender individuals. Whether you're exploring your identity, managing the complexities of gender dysphoria, or facing significant life changes like relationship endings, my goal is to support you in finding clarity and building resilience. I also offer guidance for families with transgender or nonbinary youth, providing education and support throughout their journey.
My style is warm, strengths-based, and empowering. My approach is collaborative and client-centered, addressing concerns such as anxiety, depression, and other mental health challenges. I provide gender-affirming letters for medical procedures, school, or legal documentation as needed.
We are equals in our relationship: I won’t pretend to be an expert on your life, but I will strive to be a partner in your growth. Sessions will feel like conversations with a friend. There will be moments for tears, but I’ll make sure we find space to laugh, too. Reach out for a phone consultation in the Hudson Valley, New York City, and New York state.

I help people work through life transitions, explore identity, and navigate challenges like anxiety, depression, gender dysphoria, and relationship changes. Our work together starts with understanding what's holding you back and why, so we can explore patterns, build coping tools, and creating space for self-discovery together.
