Life is exhausting for anxious trauma survivors. Even when you bust your ass to stabilize your life, you spend hours worrying about and planning for an uncertain future. Despite leaving home and finding your people, you still get stuck in painful memories from the past. You expect life to be hard, because, for you, it has been. You long for more ease, connection, and joy. At the very least, you want to sleep better, to take breaks from your responsibilities, and to feel a little better about your body. You’re tired of struggling through your day. You dream of a life that doesn't need constant fixing—a life that lets you truly rest.

I value the power of kindness and compassion to build warmth and rapport. I also value the importance of transparency and directness to build mutual accountability. I mainly work with folks ages 15-40 who struggle with emotional and behavioral dysregulation, mood-driven behaviors, and impulsivity. I am passionately serving those in the LGBTQIA+ community to provide affirming care. I have worked with: trauma, depression, social anxiety, codependency, borderline personality disorder, interpersonal conflicts, life transitions, low self-esteem, poor sense of self, neurodivergence, chronic illnesses, and identity development.

I love working with folks seeking a deeper alignment with themselves. Most of my clients identify as queer, trans, or BIPOC, and many are neurodivergent. I am LGBTQ+ affirming, gender celebratory, and sex positive. I also work well with individuals in non-traditional, non-monogamous relationship structures. My specialities are trauma work, depression, anxiety, and supporting folks who are moving through difficult transitions. I especially love working with people exploring their gender identity, gender expression, or sexual orientation, or who would like to get clarity on their life path.

I specialize in helping people who are struggling with depression, anxiety, and other sources of emotional pain such as relational concerns, life transitions, and compulsive sexual behavior. My approach to therapy is tailored to the needs of each individual client. I provide a safe, supportive, and empathic environment to help clients develop emotional resilience and obtain valuable insight into their own minds. My aim is to facilitate the development of clients’ potentialities so that they can see themselves as agents of their their own lives while acknowledging the systems we exist within that are beyond our control.

I believe it is my job to collaborate with my clients to create a Narrative that feels authentic and attuned their passions, identities, and values. We often get lost in what we feel like we should or can't do, which confines us in little boxes that make it hard for us to feel vibrant and celebrate our uniqueness. I believe that when we explore and deconstruct the social constructions and dominant discourses in our social-cultural location and biases that don't align with our personal experiences or beliefs we have the autonomy and freedom to get in touch with our most core self and better understand how we interact with our world.

I am a white, queer, non-binary therapist.
One of the most incredible gifts we can offer ourselves is the curiosity and courage to look inward. However, this is often so much easier said than done. We live in a world where it’s easy to internalize shame and misinformation about sex and sexuality and talking about it can feel taboo. As your therapist, my goal is to build a supportive, safe environment to explore notions of sexuality and intimacy with curiosity rather than judgment or shame. In our space together, vulnerability, trust, and self-compassion will be nurtured – and celebrated!

Grappling with external systems of oppression, or internal struggles like self-criticism, a life out-of-balance, or the past taking up too much of your present can feel lonely. Often, the strategies that helped us survive can develop into problems themselves.
Therapy can focus on struggles from the past, that prevent us from enjoying the good things in our present, and it can focus on dealing with the difficulties of inequity that surround us.
Challenging your old ways of living and struggling in the world is a bold move and figuring out the best way forward can feel overwhelming. You don't have to do it alone.

Everyone deserves a compassionate witness and companion who can support you through life's transitions and challenges.

Life brings us to our limits, sometimes gently, sometimes painfully. I support adults and elders across all spectrums to investigate and navigate these forks in the road that push us to new territory. Whether you're in distress or seeking more insight, I am here to support you in 'understanding the assignment' and finding your way forward. Anxiety, panic, depression, alienation, grief, relational conflict may reflect myriad causes - biology, rigid thinking, social friction or oppression, trauma, identity distress, moral/spiritual dilemmas. "There is a crack in everything, that's how the light gets in." Leonard Cohen.

As a non-binary and queer therapist, I understand the importance of honoring each individual's unique identity and lived experience.
I offer online therapy in NC for people struggling with anxiety, stress, and grief/loss. In our sessions, you’ll have space to process whatever life throws at you.

Everyone’s experience is unique. Together, we’ll explore your feelings, find healing, and build resilience. I offer free consultations to ensure we're a good fit, and you can book directly on my website.

There are times when we all need someone safe, objective, and curious to sit with us through the messy parts of life that make us human. Through my training and experience as a queer sex therapist, I have a deep appreciation for the complexity of stress, life changes, internal stories and illness. Our time together would be spent identifying your strengths, challenging some unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and honoring that you are the expert of your life. Together, we’ll hopefully laugh a ton and learn about your path and story in a safe nonjudgmental space.
