My people are adults, kids, & teens who are done pretending that everything's fine. That includes Black and brown clients healing from racial trauma, LGBTQIA+ folks needing a therapist who gets it, gamers tired of being pathologized, and people wrestling with depression, grief, ADHD, or family chaos. They come when the usual coping isn't cutting it anymore. Whether you call it therapy for people of color, therapy for gamers, or just finally finding the right fit — you've landed somewhere that takes all of it seriously. With 30+ years of experience, I bring warmth, humor, and zero judgment. All of you belongs here. Welcome.
I practice trauma-informed therapy rooted in psychodynamic depth — connecting past patterns to present struggles, making the unconscious conscious for lasting change. My work is body-aware, culturally grounded, and built on a real therapeutic relationship. I offer online therapy across ten states. I am a gender-affirming care practitioner.
My specialty is the intersection of people, relationships & technology, from video games to social media to AI. Many therapists know little about online games and may dismiss it as unimportant, or assume it is a problem. I am more interested in understanding your game experience and activity than pathologizing it.
