Not accepting new clients - If you're part of the LGBTQ+ community, you want a therapist who affirms your identities and unique experiences. You're doing your best but may still be feeling overwhelmed. Relationships, family dynamics, work or school responsibilities, systemic oppression, and past traumas can all play a role in our current difficulties. Consider that your obstacles may be opportunities for growth. Let's explore them together. I bring warmth, curiosity, directness, and a non-judgemental perspective to sessions. It's an honor to accompany clients in their journeys of healing, connection, and self-actualization.
As a queer therapist, I specialize in supporting LGBTQIA+ folks with trauma-informed, client-centered therapy. I enjoy working with clients who are interested in seeking deeper understanding and insight, building more meaningful relationships, healing from past experiences, and learning new tools to navigate difficulties.
I am based in Sacramento and offer telehealth sessions throughout California. I partner with Headway to accept some insurance plans (listed below) and can provide superbills for out of network reimbursement. Reach out for a free 15 minute consultation where we can explore whether we'd be a good fit.
