Hello & welcome! I’m so glad you are here. I am a queer-identified therapist who is passionate about supporting queer, trans, & gender-diverse youth, adolescents, adults, & families. The majority of clients I see are either in the LGBTQIA+ community or are questioning or exploring parts of their sexual and/or gender-based identities. I help folks who experience depression, anxiety, grief, & trauma process past experiences and make sense of their world. I teach folks coping skills in order to regulate mood, gain self-compassion, radically accept hard truths, and set boundaries in order to build a more aligned life for themselves.

Committing to therapy can be a difficult, life-changing journey of growth, healing, and self-exploration.

It won't be easy... but you will not be alone! We believe in practicing cultural humility as we strive to work with each client to navigate their journey and work towards their goals.

Life moves fast and requires a lot from you. Society expects you to handle the stress, so you push forward despite the weight. In the silent moments, you deal with the conflict within.

My intention is to create a safe space to explore your world while learning and practicing practical solutions along the way. I intend to focus on your strengths and build your confidence. During counseling, our work will be goal-directed, cathartic, and spiritually attuned. I hope to speak with you soon.

Life comes in waves. We all have our stressful moments and difficult situations but, at times, our ability to ride the waves falters. Maybe you are noticing that you haven’t been feeling your best recently or even for a long time now. You may be noticing your relationships with others beginning to become strained. Or you may have lost someone important in your life and found yourself struggling to cope. Sometimes it might feel as though you’re alone with your struggles or that people do not truly see you.

Grief can be isolating. You might be scared to feel the gravity of a loss, afraid you will fall apart. The pain is unavoidable, however, the suffering can be reduced by learning healthy ways to cope and build meaning. In addition to grief work, I enjoy working with adults struggling with anxiety/OCD as well as postpartum concerns. Being a parent is both wonderful and brutal. You are trying to survive adjusting to a totally new way of life. It can be challenging, but you are not alone. I will help you strategize to most effectively utilize your support system and walk with you as you navigate this period.
