Exploring your identity, navigating relationships, and confronting life transitions can bring up a mix of questions, emotions, and outside pressures. You may be wondering how to feel more grounded, how to cope with the expectations of others, or how to find clarity in moments of uncertainty. Together, we’ll create space for self-acceptance and growth. I support college students, professionals, and individuals from diverse backgrounds who are working through anxiety, depression, identity exploration, and grief. I also work with couples who are navigating infidelity, intimacy issues, open relationships, polyamory, or life transitions.

Many people seek therapy when they feel overwhelmed with new or unexpected life stressors, or when they feel stuck or controlled by their thoughts and feelings. Sometimes we focus so much on being happy, but paradoxically experience happiness as elusive. I work collaboratively with adult clients to change their relationships with their thoughts and feelings, regain control over their actions, and lead meaningful lives. I encourage conversations about identity, oppression, and privilege with my clients, as therapy can be an important space to address the effects of racism, sexism, heterosexism, classism, and ableism on our lives.

Whether you have more questions about yourself than answers, you have spent years editing yourself and shrinking your desires, or you carry the quiet exhaustion of living in a world that offers too little care, I am here to hold space for your needs. My style is conversational, collaborative, and led by consent. Always at your pace, I will walk alongside you with curiosity instead of judgement. I invite you to bring any parts of you that want to be held, even if they feel contradictory, raw, unfinished, or too much. I predominantly work with members of the LGBTQIA+ community, especially TGNC folks.

I provide pro bono letters of support for gender affirming care, and for asylum, VAWA, and T-Visas.
I am a trauma therapist who works with queer and trans communities; poly / ENM, kink / BDSM, neurodiverse and disabled communities; sex workers, and substance users. My approach is informed by my shared identities and experiences. I work with survivors of Intimate Partner Violence; childhood and adult sexual violence; attachment and complex trauma; hate violence; and police, state, and institutional violence. My therapeutic style is trauma-informed and holistic, direct, and grounded in bodily autonomy, liberation, and anti-racism. I am particularly dedicated to those who have been excluded from mainstream therapeutic spaces.

I believe therapy begins with the person and what they are seeking from the therapeutic experience. Therapy can be transformational, but the key is what the changes are that you want in your life. We can explore that together and along the way nurture the self-compassion, self-acceptance, and satisfying relationships that let you thrive. My style is collaborative, warm, affirming, and non-pathologizing and my approach draws on relational, psychodynamic, strengths-based, narrative, and behavioral modalities.

Our work together will explore the depth of your inner world, uncovering hidden patterns and sequences, and integrating this wisdom so your spirit can find its way back. This process is shaped around you; your neurotype, your lived experience, and the way your own healing instinctively wants to move. Our work together will be creative, experiential, and nonlinear, and will blend Internal Family Systems (IFS/Parts Work), Insight-Oriented Therapy, Somatic Abolitionism, EMDR, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.

As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, many of my clients are either exploring and accepting their identity for the first time or deepening their understanding of themself while working on other things, such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, and trauma. I feel incredibly grateful to offer clients a uniquely safe space where they often feel comfortable enough to share and explore things they have previously been unable to talk about. I show up with genuineness, curiosity, empathy, and humor.

My work is grounded in gender-affirming, trauma-informed, and mind-body approaches that honor each client's lived experience.
For many, life has required more surviving than living, and that can leave a lasting impact. If you've learned how to survive, but not necessarily feel at ease, you're not alone. I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, identity exploration, body image concerns, and life transitions. My approach is collaborative, trauma-informed, and affirming. I do not believe healing is linear or that progress has to look one way. You don't need to have everything out before you begin therapy. Together, we will focus on increasing self-awareness, reducing shame, and creating room for authenticity, rather than striving for perfection.

I have three areas of expertise - substance use, eating disorders and gender affirming care.
Working together, we can explore what parts of yourself you are connected to and what parts you may have pushed away out of fear or shame. Slowly, you can become reacquainted yourself and with what makes you uniquely you.

I believe therapy is a space where you can unlock new understandings of your life and the world around you.  Often, we find ourselves struggling with the recurring emotions, thoughts, and relational patterns. Through therapy, you can gain a stronger grasp of who you are and approach life with increased comfort and awareness. I specialize in working with adolescents and adults who are experiencing interpersonal and internal difficulties, navigating issues of gender and sexuality, coming-of-age, and life transitions. I also work with people who are struggling with substance use, mania, depression, and anxiety.

Maybe you’ve been moving so fast that slowing down feels impossible. Even as you show up for others, grief, shame, or anxiety may weigh heavy. A part of you knows you deserve space to breathe, connect, and feel at home in yourself. Therapy can be where that part finally has room to grow. As a white, queer, working-class person, these experiences shape and limit my evolving understanding of privilege, systemic harm, and how I see healing as relational and political. Together, we can explore the contexts, systems, and expectations that shape our experience.
