Sometimes we struggle to make meaning where life has thrown us a curveball: a death, a divorce, coming out, or even a pandemic. It’s overwhelming trying to bring order to chaos, at times having to impossibly reconcile competing truths. “It gets better” fails to appreciate the acute pain of the moment, only going so far in moving the needle towards hope. In an age where humans are increasingly polarized, buoyed by deeply held beliefs, there remains a need for something more than personal happiness alone. As a relational Therapist, I help clients find sustainable wellness; prioritizing relationship with self and others over ideology.

By listening deeply to the wisdom of the body, I help clients connect with desire, restore boundaries, and find their power. Through compassionate listening and mindfulness practice, I work with you to re-write the narratives that prevent healing and growth. I am particularly passionate about working at the intersections of faith, gender, and sexuality.

Imagine feeling peace in your heart, at home in your skin, and connected to your unique contribution to this planet. By bringing your story to life in therapy, I hope to walk with you on your journey towards peace, power, and liberation. Please visit our website to learn more and to schedule your first appointment.
