As a queer Jewish trans woman, I bring my professional experience as well as my humanity to every session. I am a clinician who laughs with you, holds space for tears and rage, and can challenge you to grow at your own pace. Whether you're a high-performer, an intellectual, an artist, a care-worker, or a student, I want to help you reconnect with your inner whimsy and joy. My trauma-informed, body-based approach centers compassion, harm reduction, and gender-affirming care, helping LGBTQIA+ clients—especially trans, non-binary, and gender-expansive folks—move toward healing and resilience.

I want to help you get unstuck from life through play, imagination, and creativity. I integrate somatic experiencing, parts-work, emotion-focused therapy, and client-centered practices. I support clients navigating substance use, spiritual questioning, and systemic oppression. I believe healing emerges through laughter, community, and embodiment.

If you want a therapist who's both kind and direct, please reach out! I want to provide a space where you can discover and nurture your authentic self. I meet you where you’re at—with warmth, empathy, and zero judgment. Therapy centers your goals, your truth, and your pace. Schedule a 15-minute phone consultation today to see if we'd be a good fit.

My work is rooted in Psychodynamic practice, connecting early experiences to current patterns of behavior and emotion. However, I often take this a step further by moving beyond what is said through words, into what is felt in the body. Through somatic experiencing, parts work, relational dynamics, and trauma-informed care, we will facilitate transformation through compassion and collaboration.
