My primary aim in my work is to meet my clients "where they are" by tuning in to their unique concerns and creating an atmosphere where they feel acknowledged and at ease. My style is warm, empathic and engaged which, combined with my acumen as a seasoned clinician, helps adults, children, parents and families feel comfortable and secure. Within this safe space, my clients express their concerns and work to repair and optimize wholesome development with professional recommendations that help to inform a collaborative therapeutic plan.

If we think alike, we would agree that a good life is a life in which we are able to work, to love, and to play. However, in reality, many situations become barriers and prevent us from enjoying life. At times, we might even feel we can't breathe. As a devoted therapist, I will work together with you to remove these barriers -- whatever the cause might be: career stress, rocky relationships, identity confusion, past trauma... You need not face your problems alone. Over years, I have witnessed changes happening, wounds healed, trust rebuilt, and fear given way to courage.

Are you feeling overwhelmed, struggling with relationships or dealing with a big life transition? Are you feeling helpless or wondering if your life will ever get back on track? When these challenges arise, every aspect of your life can be negatively impacted. By exploring more fully these experiences and gaining a greater understanding of yourself, you can begin to heal. This might include a fresh look at your job, key relationships, and whether or not you are clear on how you want to live your life. This exploration can lead to greater self esteem, more meaningful relationships and hope for the future.

Our work will teach you new coping skills, change your ways of thinking and relating to others, and resolve any past traumatic experiences that might be leaving you feeling stagnant, overwhelmed, or less connected to yourself or others.

As a member of the LGBTQ+ community and a queer therapist, I believe that therapy is different for every individual.

Healing can mean many things to many people, whether that’s community, growth, inner peace, recovery, or support. I see healing as an act of liberation. For queer and trans people, it is liberating to show up for our most authentic and embodied selves, and to have our pain, joy, passions, identities, relationships, and journeys nonjudgmentally witnessed. I see therapy as a space to sustainably build a relationship with all parts of yourself, and to feel that you are enough, worthy, and whole in the process. I offer an empathetic, collaborative, and compassionate partnership, where you decide the course of your healing journey.

Have you been feeling stuck? Have the stresses and pains of life gotten too difficult to navigate alone? Do you ever feel lost and alone?

If any of these are true for you, don't lose hope. You are not broken. Sometimes, the struggles of life get too heavy to bear alone. Together we will uncover the strength within you to not only withstand what life throws at you, but to enjoy your life as well.

Feeling disconnected from oneself can become all too easy in an increasingly fast-paced and interconnected world. I aim to create a warm and non-judgmental space where you can pause from the hustle and bustle and reconnect with yourself and what is most important to you. Processing your thoughts, feelings, and experiences, both past and present, can lead to greater self-understanding and help you recover what it means to live your most authentic and joyful life. We all can heal and grow, and together we will work to overcome barriers and develop tools to help you to live the life you want.

Are you a queer, trans, non-binary, or gender expansive person exploring gender/sexuality while coping with homophobia and/or transphobia? If you are TGNC, do you find yourself experiencing gender dysphoria and also want to explore gender euphoria? In a cishet-centered world, it can be difficult to prioritize queer joy and safety. Regardless of where or how you fit into the LGBTQIA+ community, my hope is that we can start that prioritization process together while also holding space for the hard stuff. As a therapist, I believe that you are the expert in your own life. My aim is to listen and provide warmth, patience, and tools.

As a licensed psychotherapist, I will help you navigate these challenges as you strengthen your coping skills, and improve your well-being with proven tools for leading a balanced, satisfying life.
