Cincinnati, OH 45231
The issues I can address are chemical dependency, mood disorders, grief, transitions in school, family, and marriage. A layer that is manifested in maladaptive coping skills (chemical dependency, poor self-talk, dysregulated behaviors). Clients need to be validated, accepted, and seen. Clients desire to be valued, accepted, and connected because of universal needs, a history of self-doubt, and feelings of hopelessness.

As a queer therapist, I bring a unique understanding and empathy to working with LGBTQ+ clients, visionaries, and change-makers. I recognize the structural and interpersonal challenges of living authentically in a world that often resists difference and the emotional weight that comes with it. Anxiety, depression, trauma, and the toll of shapeshifting to survive are common. For those doing socially just work, burnout and disillusionment can follow even the most meaningful commitments. I provide a healing space for you to reconnect with your values and restore your ability to move through the world with intention and integrity.

You may be here because your relationship feels distant, life feels overwhelming, or you're stuck in painful relationship patterns. Maybe past trauma keeps resurfacing, or conflict leaves you feeling disconnected from loved ones. You want deeper connection, healing, and peace—but that’s hard to reach alone. Whether in your marriage, family, or personal life, you don’t have to do this by yourself. Or, you may find yourself painfully reliving your past, no matter how hard you try to press on. It is possible to find a new way of living with more freedom and connection; but, this can be hard without help along the way.

FAQ - Therapist Gender
Does it matter what gender my therapist is?
In general, there is no relationship between a therapist’s gender and their efficacy. Some clients, however, prefer to see therapists of a particular gender, whether due to their own past experiences with men and women, or because they feel more comfortable with a therapist of their own gender due to shared life experiences or perspectives. Considering what one wants to address in therapy can help someone determine whether your therapist’s gender may matter or improve their therapeutic experience. The most important consideration is that a client is able to build a trusting relationship with their therapist.

Can clients benefit from having a therapist of the same gender?
Therapy is not gender-specific, but some men as well as women feel more comfortable opening up about their experiences and history with therapists of a specific gender. An individual may feel that they have to explain less background information and be on the same page more quickly, particularly when discussing gender-specific challenges. That said, a good clinician can transcend most if not all gender concerns. Ultimately, the most important factor in therapy is the connection and trust the client is able to build with the practitioner.

What are the advantages of seeing a female therapist?
Many people - not just women - prefer to see a female therapist. For women, this could be because they believe that they will be able to better connect with a woman, and that a female therapist will be able to relate to their specific challenges and personal issues. It may be particularly beneficial for women to see a female therapist, for example, for gender-specific issues, such as sexism in the workplace, relationship issues, and gender roles. Women who see a female therapist may also feel freer to discuss challenges that are closely tied to gender, such as life transitions including motherhood or menopause. Some clients who instinctively feel more comfortable disclosing to women may find it easier to broach sensitive subjects with a female therapist.The most important factor in therapy is the client-therapist connection, and a therapist's gender as well as many other factors may play an important role in this.

Is therapy different for men and women?
Therapy can be different for men and women insofar as gender plays a role in the challenges an individual faces and the events in life an individual has experienced. Women often face different expectations from their families, friends, and society than men do. In some cases, women might feel most comfortable expressing themselves differently from how men do. Talking about one's feelings and emotions is a critical part of most therapies, and some women might find it comes more naturally when talking to a female therapist. Ultimately, though, therapeutic treatment should be tailored to the individual's specific needs.

Do therapists get specific training to help with women’s concerns?
Therapists are trained to provide care to clients of any gender. However, some therapists may pursue additional training in feminist therapy, gender-specific issues, or women’s mental health. Female clients may wish to ask prospective therapists whether they have received specific training in the client’s primary area(s) of concern, or whether they have worked extensively with women on issues similar to their own.

How can I inquire about a therapist’s experience in treating women?
It’s OK - even encouraged! - to ask a therapist directly whether and how often they have treated women in the past, or whether they have treated women dealing with the client’s most prominent concern(s). Competent therapists will be happy to share their educational background, preferred treatment modalities, and prior client experience to help an individual find the therapist best suited to their needs.
