Many of my clients have spent years surviving in roles that left little room for who they really are. I work with LGBTQIA+ adults, veterans, people exploring gender or sexuality, those navigating polyamory/ENM or kink, and anyone facing anxiety, trauma, shame, burnout, grief, or major life transitions. Together we create a compassionate, affirming space where you can better understand yourself, develop practical coping skills, strengthen relationships, and build a life that feels more authentic, grounded, and aligned with your values.
I provide trauma-informed, LGBTQIA+ affirming therapy that integrates ACT, CBT, DBT, mindfulness, self-compassion, polyvagal-informed care, and holistic wellness. I help adults move beyond survival, reduce anxiety and shame, heal from trauma, strengthen relationships, and create meaningful, lasting change.
Starting therapy can feel vulnerable, especially if you've spent years feeling unseen or misunderstood. You don't have to have everything figured out before you begin. We'll move at a pace that feels right for you, with curiosity, compassion, and respect. If you're ready to take that first step, book with me now by clicking on my website.
