Every part of you is welcome here. Whether you're navigating life transitions, exploring your queer identity, want to deepen relationships, or heal from anxiety, trauma, or depression, we’ll work together to find clarity, resilience, and growth. At the heart of my approach is the belief that human connection is the grounding force that allows us to be seen, understood, and supported. Through compassionate and affirming care, I specialize in sexual and gender diversity. Together we’ll explore patterns, build emotional resilience, and help you develop a more grounded, authentic connection to yourself and others.
As a lesbian therapist and PhD candidate, I’m especially passionate about supporting queer individuals and couples, including those in ENM relationships. My approach integrates somatic practices, emotion-focused therapy, and psychodynamic work to help clients deepen self-understanding and reconnect with their emotional experiences.
I provide attentive, engaged support throughout our sessions, which can be held virtually from the comfort of your home, with your beloved pets by your side. If you’re interested in working together, feel free to reach out for a free consultation. I look forward to connecting with you!
