I help individuals and relationships from all backgrounds and identities. I am especially passionate about supporting LGBTQ+ clients, people navigating open or non‑traditional relationships, and anyone exploring intimacy, identity, or communication patterns. I also work extensively with neurodivergent clients, including those with ADHD and Autism Spectrum experiences.
My approach is warm, direct, and grounded in real change. I help clients move through anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and emotional patterns with clarity, compassion, and evidence‑based support. My work is affirming and strengths‑based, and sessions are tailored to each person’s needs and processing style.
Wherever we begin, clarifying what you’re feeling, understanding the patterns that keep you stuck, or reshaping how you show up in relationships, my goal is to help you feel supported and empowered to make meaningful, sustainable change.
