I’m a strengths-based, queer-affirming therapist helping young professionals and adults move from surviving to thriving. Many clients juggle creativity or demanding careers while managing late-diagnosed ADHD, rejection sensitivity, and wounds from narcissistic or conservative family systems. I also focus on working through grief, loss, avoidance, abandonment, depression, and life transitions. Through trauma-informed stabilization, self-esteem growth, and boundary work- I help you regulate under pressure, repair relationships, and build a more fulfilling life rooted in resilience. I also offer gender affirming surgery letters.
I use evidence-based practices within a strengths-based, neurodiverse affirming, person-centered framework-incorporating CBT, DBT, and trauma-informed care to support identity-affirming growth. I will create a therapy plan with you in each session to help you be accountable in your therapy work each week.
I am highly sensitive and aware to the fact that finding a therapist is a very difficult and personalized process. I will work with you wherever you are at to help you navigate through this process.
