My style is rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which involves learning skills and new perspectives to help you pursue a satisfying life while accepting the presence of difficult thoughts and feelings.
You’re feeling disconnected from yourself or the people around you. Maybe you’re feeling stuck in life and can’t find the energy to change things up. Or maybe you’re overwhelmed by thoughts or feelings that push you around or keep you from doing what you want to be doing. I'd like to help out. Clients often come to see me for help with different forms of anxiety and depression, relationship difficulties, navigating a major transition or wanting to explore their identity. I also support individuals and relationship partners in traditional and non-traditional relationships, and specialize in helping people navigating polyamory.

Hello and welcome! One thing that sets me apart from other therapists is my warm, friendly personality and the radical acceptance and love I have for my clients. Many clients report they're surprised at how easy it is to open up to me. Perhaps this is because I value you as a person and your inner wisdom above my own expertise. In therapy, I like to think of us as a team, working together to uncover parts of yourself you may have hidden away, discovering patterns that may have served you in the past but now hold you back, and trying out new ways of relating to strong emotions or showing up in the world. We're in this together.
