Our work together will emphasize self- acceptance while empowering you to pursue your goals in a way that is authentic and sustainable.
Do you feel like you're stuck in a constant battle with your self-image and self-worth. Perhaps emotional eating is your coping mechanism for stress, sadness and boredom. Maybe you're ready to break free from the cycle of shame and self-double, and finally find peace with your body. If you noticed that your inner dialogue is harsh and critical, and you'd love to have a kinder relationship with yourself. It's time to prioritize your mental and emotional well-being, but you're not sure where to start. You deserve a space where you feel heard, supported and empowered to redefine your self-worth and embrace the life you truly want.

I can offer CBT, Mindfulness Based Self Compassion and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
I love working with all different types of people wanting to change how they respond to life. My ideal clients want to learn how to respond to life, rather than react to life. The last four years have been hard and everyone can benefit from therapy. The couples I work best are seeking help with their sex life. A lot of couples I work with are also seeking help related to Polyamory/ENM and or Kink. I am happy to work with individuals, couples, and different and varying relationship designs and configurations.

I pull from various treatment modalities including Humanistic, Acceptance Commitment, Cognitive Behavioral, Dialectical Behavioral, Strengths-Based, and Solution-Focused Therapy.
Trauma is a catalyst that can either bind us in grief or propel us toward greatness. By accepting what cannot be changed and learning how to properly cope with what is, we can all live a life we envision. In my experience as a therapist, I have noticed the impact grief, loss and trauma can have on an individual's psyche. With that being said, I have also noticed- and have profound appreciation for- the innate resilience evidenced in the healing process. For the past 10 years, I’ve worked tirelessly in community mental health, school based and psychiatric sites where I provided individual, family, and group therapy.

I can help you rise up and tackle depression, learn to manage anxiety or bipolar disorder and help you discover what is standing in the way of your self- acceptance and preventing you from connecting with your authentic self.
I have been a counselor for 18 years. I love meeting and working with people of all communities. This often includes clients focusing on mood disorders, self-esteem and anxiety. I also love working with LGBTQ+ folx and have provided multiple referral letters for clients seeking gender-affirming procedures. I have a casual approach and use a lot of humor in sessions, but don't let that fool you. I take my work with my clients very seriously and work hard to help them move out of pain, suffering and difficulty. Then they are able to realize, accept and take responsibility to define and live out the life to which they aspire.

I draw from my trainings in several modalities (like CBT, ACT, IFS, and EMDR) to find what works for you.
I know most therapy bios start to blur together. Here’s what I can tell you about mine: I care deeply, I don’t show up with a script, and I’m not interested in keeping things surface-level. If you’re looking for a space that feels real — not performative — we might be a good fit. I work with adult individuals, especially young adults navigating life transitions and grief.
