Are you a young person (11-25), a caregiver of a young person, helping professional, or an adult seeking support? I am here to listen and partner with you on your journey to becoming authentically you. My approach is grounded in evidence-based, strength-based practices. I have expertise and a genuine passion for working with LGBTQIA+ individuals, identity development, complex trauma, anxiety, depression, neurodivergence, non-traditional relationship & family structures, caregiver support, burnout, and navigating challenging social systems. I bring warmth, directness, and a touch of humor to align impact for lasting change.
My therapeutic approach is grounded in evidence & strength-based practices. Approaches that honor resilience while building practical skills for lasting change. Building genuine connection and safety is foundational, and creates space for authentic exploration without judgement.
Whether you're growing up, raising someone else through it, finding yourself later than expected, or holding space for everyone around you, you've spent enough time trying to hold it all together. You don't have to have it all figured out, and you don't have to do it alone. When you're ready, reach out. We'll go at your pace. It is my honor to work with you.
