Many LGBTQIA+ people spend years navigating complex relationships with their identities, bodies, and past experiences – trying to feel at home in themselves while carrying pain from trauma and present-day challenges. You might feel disconnected from yourself, your body, and others, stuck between how you think you should feel and how you actually feel. I believe that therapy should be an affirming, nonjudgmental space for healing – where you can build trust, safety, and compassion in your relationship with yourself and others and build a life filled with meaning and value based on what matters most to you.
I specialize in working with LGBTQIA+ adults, with a clinical focus on trauma, disordered eating, body image, emotion regulation, and communication skills. I am passionate about helping clients build a more compassionate relationship with themselves and move toward greater connection, agency, and self-trust.
If you’re looking for a therapist who offers warmth, affirmation, and expertise in trauma, eating and body image concerns, and identity-related work, I invite you to reach out for a consultation. Together, we can create meaningful, lasting change that aligns with your values and supports your healing.
