I love helping people make lemonade with the lemons life has thrown at them. I create a confidential, judgment-free space where clients can be vulnerable and open to talk about life stressors and difficulties. I work with my clients to craft a space where they can grow and learn tools and skills to incorporate into their lives over the long term; to help navigate life challenges and transitions.

Accepting new clients in-person and online!.... Hi there, Life can be really hard sometimes. We all deserve the opportunity to be our best selves, heal from the past, and create the lives we dream of living. I believe healthy people make happy relationships and strong communities. Originally from the East Coast, I value having authentic, connective relationships with people. My goal is to create a safe space for you to keep it real, explore who you are, and unlock your freedom. I use a sociocultural and trauma-informed lens in my work with clients. What’s your story and how does it impact who you are?

My intention is to provide compassionate, trauma-informed care to all clients, intentionally providing space for the queer community and their families. I am warm, approachable, humorous, and strengths-based with clients. I use a variety of modalities to help people heal, grow and explore themselves including: nature-based therapy, experiential therapy, CBT, DBT, narrative therapy, and empowerment models.

Availability update: Sun-Wed AM + early afternoon in-person and/or telehealth. Finding a therapist is so much fun! Said no one, ever...We're likely a fit if you feel like others' don't get you/your lifestyle, consider yourself an outlier, or identify with a marginalized community, and/or is a high-risk/risk-taker. Also, if you use substances recreationally, medicinally, spiritually, and/or problematically I'd love to hear more and support your relationship with those substances. Contact me to schedule a free consultation and we can discuss more in detail than what 640 characters allow. Stay rad & be kind.

I like to create an environment that encourages self- awareness and promotes lasting change. I believe that we all have potential to obtain fulfillment. My goal as the therapist is to help support, empower, and advise so that you may achieve your goals and reach your fullest potential. Life can be hard and complicated, and each of our experiences are unique. Which is why I like to organize my orientation around my clients so that they can get the most out of our time. My intention is to create a nonjudgmental, collaborative space where my clients can unpack their truths and begin to heal.

If given the choice, most people would naturally strive toward becoming the best version of themselves. Depression, Anxiety, and Chronic stress are common roadblocks that can slow our progress or bring it to a halt altogether. While there are many one-size-fits-all approaches to improving mental health, we know that the most effective therapy requires customizing holistic treatment and lifestyle interventions. I am looking to work with folks who don't just want to cope with symptoms but are ready to overcome them for good.

Starting with a new therapist can feel stressful and overwhelming. I began Nomad Therapy Services with the intention of breaking down some of the traditional barriers to accessing support by creating an environment that is laid-back and unconventional. We can meet in the office or your home, the park or café, or we can do a ‘walk and talk’ – whatever feels right for you! The Nomad belief is that our environment impacts our ability to fully and meaningfully engage in the therapeutic process. And having a therapist who provides a non-judgmental space free of formal constraints can help meaningfully guide our healing and growth.

Are you struggling with aligning your life activities with your values and goals? Do you find yourself feeling stuck in unfulfilling relationships? It’s vital to acknowledge and face your current situation and the feelings you have about it in order to make change happen, and psychotherapy provides space for this. We'll begin by talking about your goals for therapy, and we'll collaborate on a plan for our work together. You can expect to develop more perspective and self-compassion, find a new capacity to navigate difficult feelings, and uncover and work towards freedom from habitual thought patterns.

More and more people are having trouble knowing who they are or where they belong in life. What we were taught growing up or what we learn from society doesn't make sense or apply any longer. Because of this, we have difficulties from depression to questioning our own belief system. It may appear as confusion, anxiety, anger, or anything that disrupts our day-to-day life. When we feel this way it is a hurt or loss that is almost impossible to describe. My type of counseling presents people with an opportunity to understand why and how they think and feel the way they do and to go deeper than they could have possibly imagined.

I focus on working with clients to recognize your inherent worthiness at work and within relationships, build trust in your inner wisdom, and integrate mindfulness and spirituality into your daily life. Whether you are coming out of a painful breakup, redefining your career path, navigating how to ask for what you need in partnership, or creating a kinder relationship with yourself, our work together can help you build self-confidence, self-awareness, and stress management techniques. My ideal client is someone who wants to embody their creative side, is curious about spirituality, and longs to step into their greatness.

Hello and congratulations! It takes true courage to venture out and explore the possibility of change. Change can be scary (our brains are wired that way for our safety!), but it can also be exhilarating. I’m in the business of changing lives and teaching people to thrive. Trained in a wide variety of psychotherapeutic modalities with over 9 years of counseling experience, I’ve helped many, many people learn how to live the life they’ve always dreamed of: to become a fully empowered human.

I am a trans and queer therapist and I greatly believe in the power of having a therapist that shares identities or experiences similar to your own! I work with trans and queer youth and adults. Living in a marginalized identity brings many challenges and I offer support, skills, and a systems perspective to navigate those barriers-while also celebrating joy, resilience, successes, and all parts of your identity. I specialize in gender affirming therapy, trauma therapy, and working with historically marginalized folx. My first priorities are safety and trust, so that we can move towards healing and taking up space!

Growing up, I always knew that I was different. Intuitive, creative, sensitive and emotional, I knew that I didn't fit the mold I was given but I could not understand why. As a therapist, I work with others who feel that they do not fit - those of use who have felt discomfort in ourselves, discomfort in our families, discomfort in our communities. I believe that in order to truly understand who we are and who we want to become, we must explore the experiences that we’ve had and look at the impact they have had on us. Once we understand what we have to work with, we are free to chose the best ways to move forward on the journey.
