I specialize in working with the LGBTQ+ population, gender-affirming care, and women's issues. I offer a compassionate affirming space to explore one's gender or sexual identity without judgment. As a transgender therapist myself, I am grateful to work with trans clients in a different way as I have walked a version of their pathway.
If you feel like we might be a good fit, please don't hesitate to reach out to schedule a free initial phone consultation. I look forward to hearing from you!
