Are you struggling to understand and manage the challenges you are facing? By providing a space in which you can explore root causes and develop healthy thoughts and effective coping mechanisms, I can help. Together we can identify beliefs that contribute to your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors, with a goal of increased self understanding and less emotional distress. I am deeply committed to helping you understand how your feelings and thoughts impact your perceptions of yourself, your life, and your relationships. I specialize in LGBTQ-related concerns; all gender identities, gender expressions, and sexualities are welcome.
I strive to provide a warm and compassionate space within which I prioritize the development of a trusting therapeutic relationship. Accessing and leaning into vulnerability can be challenging, and I bring my true self to my work in the hopes of creating a safe, supportive, collaborative, and welcoming environment to where you can bring your true self.
Thank you for visiting my profile. Please contact me with any questions and if you would like to schedule an appointment.

Each client's treatment is individualized based on need, and I generally utilize a framework of psychodynamic therapy and REBT. The combination of these two modalities will allow for us to explore how past experiences inform the way you think, feel, and behave. Within the context of that understanding, we will determine what changes you may want to work toward in favor of your present and future.
