Court-required VASAP or DOT-SAP assessment? Struggling with anxiety, trauma, depression, ADHD, or autism-related questions? You do not have to figure it out alone. I help clients who feel overwhelmed, misunderstood, stuck, or unsure where to begin. My practice is affirming, culturally responsive, and especially welcoming to LGBTQ+ clients, people of color, and those navigating identity, discrimination, relationship stress, or court-mandated requirements.
I offer therapy for anxiety, trauma, depression, relationship stress, and life transitions, along with ADHD/autism assessments, DOT-SAP evaluations, VASAP assessments, anger management groups, and substance use treatment classes. Our work is collaborative, practical, and tailored to your goals.
You deserve care that feels respectful, direct, and judgment-free. I bring clinical training, lived experience, and an affirming approach to help you feel seen while building tools for real change. I accept most major insurance plans and offer a free 15-minute consultation to help you decide if we are a good fit.

I often use CBT, trauma-focused, person-centered, and culturally sensitive approaches. In early sessions, we will identify what brought you to therapy and choose the most helpful next steps. We may look at patterns in thoughts, emotions, relationships, stress responses, and coping skills so you can build practical tools for change.
