Throughout life we face unexpected situations and scenarios that we are emotionally unprepared to manage. Making the choice to engage in therapy can assist you in developing the skills needed to manage these surprise obstacles. Whether you are learning to manage thoughts and emotions, or working to process trauma, deciding to begin therapy can be difficult – even frightening. My hope is to assist you in surpassing those fears by providing a safe and collaborative environment where you are able to recognize and honor your empowerment.

My client has the answers they need inside of them, they just need some perspective. Most of my clients have experienced trauma in their lives in some form, and struggled with finding themselves or finding meaning in their life experience afterward. Folks tend to find me to explore deeper aspects of self after building some foundational tools of mental well-being. I enjoy navigating and exploring the full-range of human experience including issues pertaining to identity and sexuality, unearthing fears and anxieties, boundary setting, and building expression in all areas of life.

Hello! I have worked with clients with a variety of issues including anxiety, PTSD, gender and sexual identity issues, abuse, narcissistic abuse, addiction, sex work issues, and homelessness. I am also familiar with veteran issues. I'm a military Gold Star mother, so I'm familiar with loss, tragedy, and the grieving process. I have learned how to hold the memories of our loved ones dear, while continuing to find meaning in life. I'm also a mother to a wonderful young man, who is trans. Watching him go through the process of transformation to his true, authentic self was a wonderful experience to be a part of.

The most endearing part about therapy is watching people uncover parts about themselves or their lives that lead to healing and change. Often someone seeks support from an outside source to help them gain a sense of control over their lives. Through the therapeutic process, they gain control over themselves and that leads to solutions they were not aware of. It's an honor to guide those who want to help themselves and create a life they are proud of.

I believe that the most important component of therapy is the genuine connection that is formed between a client and their therapist. This connection forms the foundation for emotional growth and is the most important factor in achieving our goals in therapy. I have an innate ability to genuinely connect with people and provide them with unconditional positive acceptance and support. My therapeutic approach is a mix between the symptom-solving aspects of cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness based strategies.

As a queer therapist, I am exceedingly passionate about creating space for clients in underserved populations and understand firsthand just how crucial that type of support can be. I am trauma informed, sex positive, kink knowledgeable and neurodivergent affirming. I meet every client where they are at, and see them as a person, not a set of symptoms to be "solved" or "fixed". I am incredibly excited to be a human who gets to empower other humans to be their best selves. I enjoy working with clients of all backgrounds and walks of life, and am part of the communities I serve.

Many people when searching for a therapist wonder “How could this person help me? How are they different?” – I’m a believer that what you’re looking for is not out there, it’s in you! Through working together on self-compassion and radical acceptance; you can cultivate the antidote to shame: empathy. I hope to create a space where difficult topics like sex and intimacy can be discussed in safe and helpful ways. It can feel like a very lonely place when your most intimate relationships are not going so well. I will provide a supportive, and judgment-free space. Let’s work together to find some solutions!

Certified Sex Therapist, Trauma Therapist & Life Coach. For over 18 years I have helped individuals and couples recover from the traumas of sexual, physical, verbal & emotional abuse & neglect. These early traumas manifest in somatic disorders (illness/pain), relationship issues, professional issues, & the inability to live in peace & harmony. Other manifestations may include poor body image, self-hatred & low self-esteem. Some of the modalities I utilize: Brainspotting (BSP), Internal Family Systems (IFS), PACT & Family Systems.
