Now accepting telehealth clients in Pennsylvania! As a queer neurodivergent therapist, I enjoy working with folks who share in some of those identities. My experience is primarily in helping people navigate life transitions, manage mental health symptoms, and change their relationship to alcohol and other substances. I have a deep appreciation for folks who have developed their own unique perspective on this thing that we call life. I see value in non-traditional relationship structures, and my office is a sex-positive and ace and kink affirming space.
I have worked alongside folks with a wide variety of reasons for coming to therapy, and am happy to see if we would work well together.
I utilize a psychodynamic approach, and enjoy weaving a variety of therapeutic interventions into my work such as CBT, DBT, EFT, and SFT so that therapy can be a space for sorting through past experiences, learning to sit with feelings in the present, and problem solving for the future.
