I enjoy working with people by addressing a variety of issues such as depression, anxiety, substance use and other addictions, various types of trauma, relationships, divorce, unresolved grief, co-dependency, and anger management to name a few. I accept most insurance plans including Medicaid. A reduced fee is available for clients without insurance on a limited basis. Telehealth services are also available.

My specialties include depression, anxiety, PTSD, complex trauma, interpersonal relationship concerns, self esteem, and chronic illness.

As a licensed therapist, I have experience working with children, teens, and adults with various concerns. I am dedicated to everyone with whom I work, though my heart is drawn particularly to supporting young adults who are facing the intricacies of independence, education, career choices, and personal growth. I am committed to creating a safe and affirming space for LGBTQ+ individuals where you can explore your identity, overcome obstacles, and celebrate your unique journey.

Beginning therapy and finding a new therapist can feel challenging yet hopeful. It is important to find a therapist with whom you can form a close bond and who begins to understand you. This bond can give way to more deep and meaningful therapeutic work. As an Object Relations psychoanalytical psychotherapist I will use our therapeutic relationship as the primary vehicle for change. Psychoanalytic work helps provide relief from debilitating symptoms as well as addresses the deeper underlying causes of your symptoms. Our work also allows for exploration in understanding unconscious drives that shape your daily life and relationships.

I am flexible to accommodate most schedules. I believe everyone can benefit from therapy; at its core, therapy is about building a relationship in which we feel safe to embrace and become our authentic selves. I enjoy working with people to explore life experiences and identify past trauma that may be preventing them from living their best life. I am passionate about issues surrounding individual freedoms, specifically relating to gender/sexuality. As a queer professional, I enjoy working with clients who identify as LGBTQIA+ and/or who practice nontraditional relationships, including polyamory and kink.

Growth, change, and struggle are a part of life and seeking professional services is a beautiful gift you can give yourself.

Talking with a qualified therapist can help bring control and clarity to areas of your life, areas that may need more attention then they have received in the past.

I believe that within a safe, trust-filled therapeutic relationship, people can decide upon and implement the changes necessary to improve their lives.

I invite clients to explore their problems by working to create a safe, accepting environment. Believing that a problem holds the key to its solution, I try to help clients hear what they are saying and pay attention to the way they see things. Symptoms such as depression, anxiety, and relationship problems often echo patterns or concerns we have carried for years. I encourage clients to say what they think and feel so they can accept where they are, see the possibility of change, and take the risk of acting different.

I am deeply interested in the interface between psychology and spirituality with a special focus on forgiveness, coping and mindfulness, brain-based and attachment-focused parenting, and schema focused therapy, which well equips me to assist clients facing life transition issues or relationship issues with a spiritual/depth dimension. I view psychotherapy as a venue where I can help my clients to change their beliefs, polish their perceptual lenses, adjust their relational patterns, let go of unnecessary suffering, and develop a deeper capacity for joy by learning to live more mindfully and gratefully.

Life happens to us and sometimes it's not pleasant. Issues from our past as well as current stress has a way of affecting our moods, behaviors, and relationships.

I have helped many individuals overcome and manage a variety of distressing thoughts, emotions and behaviors. Common complaints include depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, abuse/trauma, panic, relationship issues, anger, stress, interpersonal conflict, moodiness, grief/loss, and major life stressors.

My ideal client wants (and possibly needs) help! Much like all of us. We all have something to work on (even this guy!).

I have experience with an assortment of issues (been working at an inpatient psych facility for two years). I'm here to meet you where you're at and provide no judgement at all. BEST way to reach me is via email or text message as I'm more than likely in session when you contact me!

Whether you realize it or not, just by being here and considering a therapist you have already begun a journey of change. Whether you have a specific life goal or hurdle you are working on or if you are struggling with things like depression, anxiety, trauma, anger, addiction, relationship issues, or career-related struggles, my first goal is to provide you a safe, non-judgmental place to be listened to and understood.
