Finding a therapist should not mean being a teacher. You deserve a space where the nuances of your LGBTQIA+ identity and relationships are already understood, not debated. My practice is built on the belief that you shouldn't have to explain your humanity to receive expert care. Whether you're navigating identity shifts, neurodivergence, or trauma, I provide a deeply affirming environment where your total, authentic self is the priority. You don’t need to "tone it down" here. I’m here to walk alongside you with steady, informed support. Let’s move toward the clarity and resilience you deserve!
My therapeutic approach is humanistic and gentle, and we will work together to find the approaches and goals that feel most useful to you. I draw from various techniques including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness and anti-oppressive.
I specialize in working with the LGBTQIA+ community (with a specific focus on transgender clients & the exploration of gender identity), substance use disorders, anxiety, depression & Autism. Additionally, I welcome non-monogamous/polyamorous folks and those from kink communities, and I operate from a Health at Every Size (HAES) framework. Reach out today.

I help clients navigate challenges related to identity, ADHD, and the LGBTQAI community. During our initial sessions, we'll delve deeply into the issues at hand and collaborate on a plan to help you reclaim your life. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month and sustained improvement thereafter.

In my practice, I use a mix of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness. In your first session, we'll talk about what brought you to therapy. We'll then work together to figure out the best approach for you. With these methods, we'll explore the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and actions.
